I am an ecological economist, systems researcher, educator and activist in the field of sustainable economy. My work focuses on how societies relate to profit and how this relationship affects global sustainability challenges, like inequality and climate change. The basis of my approach is relationship-to-profit theory, which explains how key aspects of business and markets drive social and ecological sustainability outcomes.
I have a new book coming out in late September that offers a model of an entirely not-for-profit economy as a viable and desirable alternative to the for-profit economy we currently have. Sign up to be notified when the book is published.
I hold a double PhD in Economics (from the University of Clermont Auvergne, France) and Sustainability Science (from Stockholm University, Sweden). As an activist, I collaborate with civil society organizations, businesses, and policy makers to transform the economy so that it can work for everyone within the ecological limits of the planet. I am an affiliated researcher at Uppsala University and a senior research fellow at the Schumacher Institute.
