Personal Profile
Focus
Hannah is convinced that communication plays a key role in bringing about social change. At ZOE, Hannah combines this conviction with her passion for new economic thinking. As a Communications Assistant, Hannah helps to make ZOE Institute’s work accessible to a wider audience, and bridge the gap between research, policy and public debate.
Background
Hannah holds a bachelor's degree in environmental sciences and a master’s degree in ‘Socio-Ecological Economics and Policy’. Her interest in ecological economics was sparked after realising the close link between economic systems and ecological crises. In her master's thesis, she examined how discourses can hinder socio-ecological transformation, particularly in the context of the energy transition. Prior to joining ZOE Institute, Hannah worked in communications and education at the Network for Pluralist Economics.
