Our ORIGINS

SEDA was formed in 1991 by Howard Liddell and Sebastian Tombs and launched formally in February 1993 by Lord James Douglas Hamilton, Minister for Housing and the Environment at the Scottish Office. The Minister handed out prizes to the winners of the first SEDA student eco-design competition, which we now run as the 'KJ Award'. SEDA began a programme of talks and visits, and a newsletter produced by GAIA which later became our current Magazine. And so, SEDA was born.
