Scotland is entering a new era in public life. The last decade has been dominated by the aftermath and consequences of two major constitutional events: the Scottish independence referendum and Brexit. Now, it is time for a revamped national conversation about the lessons of that period, and our ambitions for the future. And, as we navigate a changing world, Scotland is not immune from the consequences of polarisation and political alienation. That is why we are collaborating to create an arena of informed discussion and debate. So, join us for what promises to be a fascinating day as we reflect, imagine and learn together.
