The Technical-Scientific Advisory Committee (TSAC) is composed of at least 12 ad hoc researchers of national and/or international renown in their respective fields, appointed by the Network Coordination. The committee is responsible for evaluating, every 12 months, the progress and results of the research projects under development within the VERDES Network. It will issue detailed reports highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each project and of the Network’s innovation management, as well as provide suggestions for improvements and adjustments to ongoing projects. These reports will be submitted by the Network Coordination to the Joint Steering Committee, thus supporting its strategic decisions regarding the progress of the Network’s projects.
