Hi! I'm Kieran, I am a recent Psychology graduate from the University of Glasgow. Since graduating, my interests have widened from personal and community development to international and sustainable development and I have been spending the last several months building my knowledge of the sustainability sector and investigating efficient ways that the world is progressing towards the UN's sustainable development goals. Kate Radworth's work on Doughnut Economics really really excites me, as it seems to be an incredibly impactful way of meeting the needs of our planet and it's people.
