Advisory groups
Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
The TAG is an advisory body that provides expert advice throughout the development or revision of SBTi technical outputs (e.g. standards, guidance documents, etc.). TAG members have in-depth knowledge of climate change mitigation or expertise in science-based target setting. They bring diverse perspectives from business, academia, government, non-profit and multilateral organizations. Members are appointed for a fixed-term of two years. The group serves in an advisory capacity and is not a decision-making body, and the scope of the TAG spans all technical developments for which an ad-hoc Expert Advisory Group has not been created (see below). For more information, please see the Terms of Reference for the TAG.
Scientific Advisory Group (SAG)
An advisory body comprised of experts from the scientific community with specialized expertise in climate science and climate change mitigation. The SAG provides advice to ensure the robustness of the pathways and methods that underpin science-based target-setting. The group serves in an advisory capacity and is not a decision-making body.
OPEN CALL FOR APPLICATIONS FOR THE SBTi SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY GROUP
To complement existing areas of expertise and to ensure wider regional diversity, we are currently seeking to appoint five new members to the SAG. We would particularly like to hear from applicants from the Global South and with leading expertise in one of the following research areas:
- Climate Justice and Equity
- Market based climate policy instruments
- Green Finance
Please consult the SAG Terms of Reference for details on the appointment process, required time commitment, expectations and other important information.

The SBTi will review submitted information and select members based on the composition goals as well as where expertise gaps remain with respect to our future work.
Expert Advisory Groups (EAG)
Project-specific multi-stakeholder bodies that provide advice throughout the development of specific projects, EAGs are appointed by the project lead for the duration of a project. The scope of EAGs is limited to the project for which they were created. EAGs serve in an advisory capacity and are not decision-making bodies.
