SEFARI Gateway Knowledge Exchange and Innovation Specialist Advisory Groups (SAG) are interdisciplinary partnerships that respond to cross-cutting priority issues at appropriate scales and pace. SEFARI Gateway will provide support for a new SAG led by RESAS on improving emission projections from Scotland’s waste sector. We are looking for individuals across SEFARI, Centres of Expertise and Higher Education Institutes with relevant expertise in this area to join the project team, including staff from RESAS and relevant agencies. This project will serve as a platform to build a network of
