On 18 September 2014, Scotland held a referendum on the question: Should Scotland be an independent country? This is a most unusual event in modern democracies and engaged the political class, civil society, and the general public to an unprecedented degree, leading to an 85 per cent turnout in the final vote.

For your information the recording of presentations is now on our website and YouTube Channel. There's also a great recap of the event on Storify.
