Abstract

From 2017-2021, Dr Tom Ratcliffe conducted a PhD research project into how people identify with landscapes within the North York Moors and the role communities have in influencing decisions about landscape protection and change.

The project was a study of the viewpoints held by a wide range of communities and other key National Park stakeholders and how they connect with the landscapes. Key stakeholders interviewed included the National Park Authority, other government bodies, conservation organisations, landowners, land managers, developers, and local voluntary groups. Tom conducted 58 interviews and used ‘walking interviews’ as his primary method of data collection. Following on from his article in the Autumn edition of Voice of the Moors about walking interviews, this
article outlines some of his findings concerning land ownership, management and community participation as we face up to the biodiversity and climate emergencies.
