Our Work
SHRED provides easily digestible definitions of each policy area as well as case studies to demonstrate how they operate in practice and resources for our partners in delivery.
In addition, SHRED has regularly updated blogs and has recently launched an online event series from across our five policy areas with contributions from a variety of stakeholders including academia, public sector partners, industry, third sector and government.
The day-to-day operation of SHRED is undertaken by the Directorate for Economic Development at the Scottish Government.
