I currently work as an Anaesthetic Doctor with experience in finance having studied Economics for my first degree. I also have many hobbies, from painting, music to skiing and sailing! I would like to explore how I can use my moral ambition, skills and knowledge, to invest my time to make a positive impact. I believe our world is facing some of its greatest challenges of our time.

I am a former CEO of a private company manufacturing capital goods for the steel industry. While I have lived and benefitted from the growth mindset, since retiring I have been searching for a movement that can start to change the way our society works. My focus had been on politics but every where I looked at political movements I saw such firmly entrenched opposition to change that I could not see a way to start change that could be successful. After reading "Donought Economics" my eyes were opened to the possibility of focusing on economic change with the many small ways that grass roots efforts could make change develop from the bottom up. I still believe that political change is necessary but with an economic movement developing momentum political change may become inevitable.

Founder & CEO of Sangha Estidama Hub | Planetary Wellbeing Specialist I am dedicated to shaping a sustainable future by promoting both individual and planetary well-being. As the Founder and CEO of Sangha Estidama Hub, I lead initiatives that integrate inner wellbeing with environmental consciousness, fostering sustainable communities and human progress. One of our signature projects, the PERMA Augmented Green Roof Classrooms, addresses the interconnectedness of individual, communal, and environmental health through a holistic planetary wellbeing approach. Our key programs include: • PERMA Program: Targeting high school and university students, this program nurtures emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and inner well-being through nature-based learning. • Job Readiness Program: Designed for engineering and architecture students, it combines the PERMA framework with practical experience in green roof design, bridging the green skills gap. • Green Roof Classrooms: These innovative learning spaces mitigate climate change, promote connection to nature, and offer students and teachers a peaceful oasis for self-reflection and growth. With experience spanning Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and France, I have collaborated with global organizations such as UNESCO, WHO, the World Bank, and Oxfam to create impactful policies and programs that promote sustainable development. In 2022, I had the privilege of serving as a Y20 Saudi Delegate, contributing to global discussions on youth empowerment and sustainability. As an internationally certified Holistic Health & Wellbeing Coach, I bridge the gap between individual well-being and planetary health through a multidisciplinary approach. I hold a BA in Politics & International Relations from the University of Southampton and an MA in Public Policy from King’s College London. My passion lies in exploring the interconnectedness of social, cultural, economic, and environmental factors to provide holistic solutions to the challenges of the 21st century.

en français ci-dessous. My intention is to find out how to implement the donut approach in our organisation. I'm a project manager at the FTI, the Fondation pour les Terrains Industriels de Genève. I launched the ecoParc-industriel dynamic at the FTI 10 years ago. I'm in charge of facilitating the establishment of companies on industrial land on a territorial scale that's bigger than the real estate plot: the urban piece or the plot of land (a neighbourhood block), with the idea of facilitating mutualisation and reducing environmental impacts. Mon intention est de percevoir comment implanter la pratique du donut dans notre organisation. Je suis chef de projet à la FTI, la Fondation pour les Terrains Industriels de Genève. J'ai créé il y a 10 ans la dynamique écoParc-industriel à la FTI. Je suis chargé de faciliter l'implantation d'entreprises sur les terrains industriels, dans une dimension territoriale plus grande que la parcelle immobilière : la pièce urbaine ou le lot de parcelle (un ilot de quartier), dans l'idée de faciliter les mutualisations et réduire les impacts environnementaux.

I am an organisational inclusion strategist, working to support leadership with and behavioural change at individual, team, and systems levels. I do that with my own consultancy Unheard Voice. I use ( ) as a foundation for this work. This is an academically robust approach to inclusive behaviours- if you're high in CQ you behave inclusively. It can be a missing link taking some of the guesswork out of the culture and values questions in the DE model. Before working full-time in inclusion, I did it part-time, within my Consultancy. My career for 30 years before this was working in broadcast journalism as a journalist and leader. My mission is giving the unheard voice a place to speak.

As CEO of award-winning charity City to Sea, I’m driven to transform our take, make waste system into a circular economy where resources are valued and cherished. From period pants to refillable laundry liquid or returnable cups, City to Sea’s work is designed to change the way we shop for good, helping businesses, organisations, individuals and communities to transition away from linear systems. Professionally I have broad experience across environmental, culture, FMCG and retail. My career started out in live music delivering sponsored activations at live music events and festivals. This led to marketing campaigns for big FMCG brands like Budweiser, Britvic Soft Drinks and Jameson. I even successfully launched a new bottled water brand for one of my clients, so I understand brand marketing and new product development alongside the environmental impacts of the market. The rest of my career has been split between culture and environmental sectors, both public and private sector. From leading client services for theatre and music companies to growing the organic market at Soil Association. I’m a qualified marketeer and recently graduated from the University of Bristol with distinction for an MSc in Strategy, Change and Leadership. Talk to me about progressive ways of working, environmental and social justice and better ways to do business.

I’m a sustainability consultant from Germany, now based in Medellín, Colombia, passionate about #CircularEconomy, #DoughnutEconomics, and #SustainableBusiness. I joined the DEAL Community to explore how Doughnut Economics can be applied to local communities and businesses in Colombia. I believe in using this framework to drive positive change, helping to avoid the environmental and social pitfalls industrialized countries have faced. I’m here to connect with like-minded people, learn from practical applications, and find opportunities to bring the Doughnut model into action, both professionally through my consultancy and personally through voluntary projects. Looking forward to exchanging ideas and collaborating!

I'm a project manager and map-maker. I've worked a lot with different types of data, especially in the Open Data space (using data that is publicly available). In recent years this has led me to an interest in sustainability in road traffic systems within Europe and towards sustainability in the more general sense. I have recently managed a couple of sustainable house renovation projects (reuse of materials, improving insulation and recycling building materials) and I'm working on editorial and curating projects in Italy, valorizing the cultural heritage.
