This spring we’ll be continuing our series of conversations with environmental leaders that sit outside of philanthropy to explore what “stepping-up” to this political, ecological and societal moment looks like.

Our first speaker in this new series is Johan Rockström, one of the world’s leading scientists on global sustainability, climate change, resilience and global water resources. With over than 150 research publications, his work spans fields ranging from applied land and water management to global environmental policy.  Since 2018 he has served as Director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and Professor of Earth System Science at the University of Potsdam. Prior to his current roles, Rockström co-founded and directed the Stockholm Resilience Centre from 2004 until 2018.
