A template to develop a personal doughnut

The aim is to provide guidance on lowering our impact on the earth whilst increasing social purpose and positive ways of being, helping the individual and household to thrive. There is no right or wrong way to do this, just the act of thinking about it is incredibly productive. Working with peers provides a supportive and encouraging environment to consider what action to undertake.

#Change Agent #Steward for Sustainability #Connector # Design Thinker #Process Developer #Educator #Coach #Creator #Fan of the Doughnut. In it 'cause we've got a world to win. I started spending my professional time on sustainability in 2020. Now I don't want to do anything else. Currently employed at Aeres Hogeschool Almere, Geo, Media & Design. At my previous employer, ROCvAF (medium vocational education) I've set up a Green Office, internal and external networks. We've changed curricula, hosted events, trained teachers and school leaders. Now it's a movement that makes impact. I've worked with Practoraat Circulair Regional Economy. We work with organisations, authorities and education to solve real problems with challenge based learning. I assisted teachers with briefing templates, scenario's for the (creative) proces, design thinking tools and assessment possibilities. I have a background in design, visual storytelling and in education. Nice to meet you!

| Sustainability Transitions Specialist | Co-Founder of Mexico City's Doughnut Economic Coalition + Scaling Coordinator in CIMMYT-CGIAR After finishing my MSc in Environmental Sciences, Policy and Management in Lund University with a thesis to downscale the doughnut for Mexico City's water policies, I learned research was not enough to make a change. For this reason, I have co-founded the Tricolor Coalition (Mexico City's Doughnut Economic Coalition) to collaborate with other agents of change to promote sustainability transitions in Mexico City. We are now developing community, informative, and capacity building activities to support Mexico City's agents of change interested in promoting this transition. I am currently also working as a Scaling Coordinator in the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center. In my job, I continue to learn about systems thinking approaches, and about what types of food innovations could be scaled (why? and where?) to create more impact. Moreover, I also have experience in international and national public administrations, and I have specialized in the water-food-energy sectors and climate change challenges.
