SAGE (Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies)

The Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) is a group of experts that provides the UK government with advice during national emergencies, such as health crises or natural disasters. Comprising scientists and specialists in various fields, SAGE analyzes data, risks, and scientific evidence to offer recommendations on how to respond effectively. Their guidance helps policymakers make informed decisions to protect public health, safety, and security. SAGE operates independently to ensure unbiased, evidence-based advice, which is crucial for managing complex emergencies and minimizing their impact on society.
