Objects of meaning

Scotland’s land reform journey and our community land movement is viewed by many (usually from afar) as radical and something to aspire to. The reality is never quite as rosy but nonetheless the perspectives gained from sharing and comparing with what’s happening elsewhere are always valuable. Today Community Land Scotland are co-hosting a UK wide event in Manchester, building a picture of land reform as it develops across the four home nations.  Land reform can represent different things to different people. National Museums Scotland want to document land reform through the collection of objects that hold special meaning.
