She has set up a number of renowned organisations, communities and campaigns.Trained as an anthropologist, Ella has worked in international development, the creative industries and public policy. Working internationally in places like India, Afghanistan and Latin America, opened her eyes to the impact climate change was having over 15 years ago and tackling it has been a driver of her work ever since.
Ella’s burning question is how, as a species, we can create long, flourishing futures for all inhabitants of earth. And so, she has co-founded the Long Time Project - a movement inspiring individuals, organisations and industries to become better ancestors through collective action.
