Community-based Activity in
the Uplands:
Opportunities and Limits
Our First Annual Conference was held on 12
and 13 November 2004. The conference had two objectives:
- to consider the opportunities and limitations
for community-based activities in the uplands, concluding with a conference
statement on changes which need to be made in current policy statements
- to define the most important priorities for
international research in the uplands, concluding with recommendations on the
work programme of the Uplands Centre.
