IN an increasingly polarised political world, respectful debate is a rare gem to find.
But for the last year at the University of St Andrews, students and staff have been encouraged to create projects which have that at their heart, in the hope of showing debate can still be an enjoyable, mind-stretching activity.
At what felt like a pivotal moment in Scotland’s history following the pandemic, a pot of £35,000 was put aside last January for the launch of the Scotland’s Future series – an initiative aimed at demonstrating the university’s commitment to playing an active role in issues set to be pertinent for the country over the next decade.
