Lindsay Ruth Wong
Biography
With a background in Sustainable Energy Policy and International Relations, I have had the opportunity to advance interdisciplinary research and communication on sustainable development issues in Europe, North America, and the Global South. In my master's program, I particularly analyzed the impacts of the implementation of clean tech and climate adaptation strategies in rural communities, as well as contributed to a research project concerning the development of agri-food systems in contemporary Asia.
My combined academic and industry experience relies on evidence-based research and outreach methods to provide reliable and accessible information to target audiences.
I started at the foundation in December 2023 to support its research work and contribute to texts. I also support the foundation's translation work into English to grow the reach of the website worldwide.
Motivation
Growing up in Vancouver, Canada, nature has always played a large role in my development through education, “play,” and nutrition. I also often participate in community activities that promote grassroots movements, such as climate protests, community farming, and promoting youth participation in nature.
My personal mission is to advocate for the environment and educate the public so they can make informed decisions concerning their own health, as well as that of our planet.
