David Suzuki Foundation
One nature.
We are nature. All people, and all species.
We are interconnected with nature, and with each other. What we do to the planet and its living creatures, we do to ourselves.
This is the fundamental truth guiding our work at the David Suzuki Foundation.
Founded in 1990, the David Suzuki Foundation is a national, bilingual non-profit organization headquartered in Vancouver, with offices in Toronto and Montreal.
Through evidence-based research, education and policy analysis, we work to conserve and protect the natural environment, and help create a sustainable Canada. We regularly collaborate with non-profit and community organizations, all levels of government, businesses and individuals.

Hi! I created Atonom as a response to what I see as an unsustainable addiction treatment industry in Sweden. More and more I am coming to see the value of resiliency and sustainability thinking.

My name is Sara and I’m a climate social scientist, political activist, and science communicator focused on social-ecological resilience and the future of our planet and this is what brings me to the DEAL community. I’m very interested in understanding how frameworks are built to protect and safeguard people and the planet in a time like today. Earlier, I’ve been associated with some remarkable organisations such as LSE Cities, Sanctuary Asia magazine, the Sanctuary Nature Foundation, the World Resources Institute, Earth Day Network, among others. In my past as a divemaster, I have worked to support several coral restoration projects across Asia-Pacific, until I realised those are band-aid fixes, unless overall emissions come down and policy around fossil fuel and corporate expansion shifts, there isn’t much hope for our reefs. And so I came back to land. I’ve worked with the concepts of the Anthropocene, rewilding, community owned conservancies, citizen science and the climate system. I am interested in human behaviour, international governance, and social justice. I worry about environmental policy being geared towards constant resource exploitation through advances in technology, viewing natural resources from a purely economic activity linked to a GDP/trade statistics perspective. I also think about how human behaviour is shaped and influenced by its surroundings in the climate crisis. I enjoy designing public awareness campaigns, speaking to people and communities, writing, illustrating and looking for creative ways that help the public learn about, fall in love with and protect our green-blue dot. I write for and illustrate for Sanctuary Asia magazine and am always looking for knowledge translation writing projects and opportunities that can demystify earth science for the people. I love reading/run/swim/cycling in no particular order punctuated by being a couch potato. I have a special affinity towards socialist literature + memes and fluffy creatures of the biosphere.
