Forward Scotland's development programmes are designed to encourage a strategic and integrated approach to sustainable development and are delivered in partnership with key stakeholders. Partners may include public, private and third sector organisations with projects addressing issues at national, regional and/or local level. The focus of each development programme reflects the priority themes of sustainable development in Scotland: resource use, waste management, energy and travel. Other programmes focus on key economic sectors. Forward Scotland welcomes expressions of interest from potential partners. Our support can include both financial and in-kind contributions and span all stages of project development and delivery, from initial concept through implementation to completion and evaluation.
