ClimateXChange (CXC) is one of four Scottish Government’s centres of expertise. We commission research on policy relevant questions across net zero and resilience to climate change for Scottish Government policy teams. The CXC advisory panel provides expertise and links across climate change mitigation, adaptation and just transition policy relevant topics. Advisory panel members provide expertise on methodological approaches, research ethics, interdisciplinary research and best practice. A key task is to link in, and signpost to, expertise available within other programmes, networks and individual sources.
