As part of Analysis in Government Month, Euan Baird shares how the Regional Development Team gained recognition in the ‘Impact on policy’ category at the Geography in Government Awards.
Toward the end of what proved to be one of the most unexpected and challenging years for all of us, myself and colleagues in the Scottish Government’s Regional Economic Development Division were delighted to be recognised for our work on ‘Re-establishing Ayrshire as a Functional Economic Geography to benefit its communities’ at the Geography in Government Awards. Winning the ‘Impact on Policy’ category was a real boost to all involved, underlining that we were on the right path.
