Hi there ! I'm particularly insterested in all  topic in my private life, and now I'm starting a business to advise french companies and leader in their , with the goal to include sustainability inside !

With a background in agronomy and sustainability, I have been passionate about nature and its preservation from a young age. My work addresses today's most urgent challenges: social inequality, climate change, and biodiversity loss. Believing that humans are both the cause and the solution to these issues, I am trained in Ethical Leadership—leveraging innovation and collaboration to create sustainable value for people, businesses, and ecosystems alike. At Kinomé, I design and lead high-impact projects across Latin America, driving  value chains and consulting initiatives. On a global scale, I develop strategic partnerships with corporate partners to bring positive at scale. As a social business and member of the Ashoka network, Kinomé has transformed 2 million lives and helped plant and protect over 6 million trees in 40+ countries since 2005.

I want to catalyse action for companies and individuals. Currently working at the company South Pole as a consultant in Environmental Impact Accounting. I'm active in the organisation Climate Fresk since four years, and through which I've facilitated around 40 workshops and held a few trainings. In my free time I develop www.reconnect.earth together with my partner. Even though climate issues lie closest to my heart and even though I've been active in the environmental space since 2008, I increasingly learn about social issues, realising that we need to make sure the transition to a future is  by design.

FIX is a social enterprise with more than 100 employees. FIX's main goal is to build a quality life through work for people looking for their way in the labour market. It consists of 2 departments: FIX work experience: Renovates schools, youth, culture and sports infrastructure all over the Brussels Region. The works are carried out by low-skilled, long-term jobseekers on temporary work experience contracts, thus increasing their chances on the regular labour market. FIX regular: Akoestiekfabriek: production and installation of circular acoustic panels. All profits are invested in sustainable job creation for people seeking their way into the labour market. We don't have shareholders. With Akoestiekfabriek we tackle the environmental challenges (by reusing raw materials to produce our panels), the societal challenges (by creating sustainable and qualitative jobs for lowly-skilled jobseekers) and a big health problem (noise pollution is the second biggest threat to European citizens, according to WHO).

Gurugram, Haryana, India

Hey there! I'm Himani Dawar, a business management undergraduate at Shaheed Sukhdev College of Business Studies, University of Delhi with prior experience in consulting, venture capital, impact creation and finance and current interest in economics (of course :)). Currently, I serve as a Senior Consultant at the SSCBS branch of the world's largest student run volunteer consultancy - 180 Degrees Consulting. During my internships at FICCI and Anthill Ventures, I gained valuable experience in evaluating financial viability, driving startup growth, and identifying key industry trends. At Anthill Ventures, I facilitated strategic initiatives for startups across sectors by analyzing financials, leading investor showcases, and crafting detailed industry reports. Similarly, at FICCI, I assessed global education trends and developed insightful reports on emerging business themes, such as ESG investing and Gig Economy to inform high-level stakeholders. Additionally, in November 2024, my team and I clinched the Global Rank 4 at the prestigious Cornell EMI Corning Case Competition, organized by Cornell University, United States. This globally recognized case competition, organized by the Emerging Markets Institute, Cornell University witnessed participation of 47+ Business Schools from 15+ countries. Our team was the youngest team to be in the Global Top 5 and secured the highest ever rank achieved by an Undergraduate college.  When I am not in the business world, you'll find me in the kitchen - experimenting with baking recipes or jogging with my headphones. I'm enthusiastic about engaging in zumba workouts, travelling and exploring new places :) I am eager to contribute my skills and knowledge to the DEAL community and learn from the insights and expertise of fellow members. I believe that Doughnut Economics offers a promising framework for addressing the pressing challenges of our time and creating a more just and sustainable future. 

Dronfield, Derbyshire, England, United Kingdom

I'm a former Government Economist turned Renegade. Frustrated by mainstream economics I set up Flourish Economics which exists to challenge mainstream economic thinking and explore radical and hopeful alternatives. I try to combine education, community building, research and facilitation to bring together diverse groups to collectively challenge our thinking around success, purpose and our values. I'm planning to work with an intern from the University of Sheffield to start to develop a Doughnut for the Sheffield City Region. If anyone is interested in being part of this work please get in touch. I'd love to collaborate and have as many voices brought in as possible.

Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden

I have been working as a mechanical design engineer since 2016. For most part of this time, I have been in the renewable energy sector, designing solar cell production machines and a wave energy converter. In the first week of 2025, I started to realize that green growth is not the answer to the problems we have today. We need to use renewables but that’s not enough. Me understanding that our economic system’s endless pursuit for growth was the epic underlying factor for many of our big problems we have today was transformative to me. The donnought economy and other well being economies resonates with me. I want to be a part of making them into a reality.
