Through speaking engagements, I change the narrative on rural, remote and island regions by demonstrating how they can become centres of innovations and create world-changing solutions. This is based on my wide-ranging experience in international politics, academic, non-profits, government and the private sector.
You understand your region. I understand sustainable development. Workshops are an opportunity to share our knowledge and create actionable solutions and new directions. I will generate a report of opportunities and key insights to be referred to as a future resource.
I provide support for teams developing projects to stimulate entrepreneurship and innovation, specializing in projects with a sustainability focus. I bring a distinct perspective on sustainability communications and work with companies as an advisor for short or long-term programs, providing feedback, brainstorming and planning advice.
