The Sustainable Development Commission Scotland is the Government’s independent advisor on sustainable development.
The Commission reports to the First Minister of Scotland on key policy areas including: energy, the economy, climate change, governance and food. We help government, local authorities and businesses put sustainable development at the heart of what they do.
Commissioners and secretariat work with Scottish Government departments and agencies to promote sustainable development. We also work with a vast range of other organisations, such as the Scottish Sustainable Development Forum and the Sustainable Scotland Network. The two Scottish-based Commissioners are Jan Bebbington and Hugh Raven. Secretariat support is led by Scottish Director, Maf Smith.
