Naeeda Crishna is a Project Researcher with SISTech currently working on a range of projects relating to knowledge transfer, renewable energy in rural communities and Carbon Footprints. This includes knowledge management for the built environment for which Naeeda is currently collating and categorizing research outputs in order to assess the effectiveness of dissemination activities in reaching end users. Other projects have involved identifying opportunities to incorporate renewable energy systems into existing farms and rural communities, and contributing to a carbon footprint analysis of road maintenance operations.

Prior to joining SISTech Naeeda worked on a waste feasibility study for the University of Edinburgh where she was responsible for completing a cost-benefit analysis of different approaches to waste management. With an undergraduate degree in Geology, and an M.Sc. in environmental Sustainability, Naeeda's final dissertation analyzed the use of the ecological footprint as an indicator of sustainability using Scottish agriculture as a case study.
