Management
© England's NorthwestThe Partners are providing initial funding of £214k over 2 years (from 2005).
The purpose of SCPnet is threefold:
• to promote the effective use of better evidence in designing policies that support sustainable consumption and production
• to identify evidential gaps and develop further information, tools and approaches to support evidence-based policy
• to assess progress in promoting sustainable consumption and production in the sponsoring regions
SCPnet has a management board that involves all the programme partners. The management board meets twice a year and is chaired by Graham Tubb, Head of Sustainable Development at SEEDA.
SCPnet’s smaller management executive meets more frequently. The current members of the management executive are:
Henry Leveson-Gower, Environment Agency
Brian Macaulay, West Midlands Regional Observatory
Paul Hinds, EEDA
Graham Tubb, SEEDA
Martyn Roberts, Yorkshire & Humber Assembly
Steve Micklewright, WWF
