Impact Lead - Climate
Phone: +47 469 39 860

Leading climate action for impact through science, inclusion, and systems change.

As Impact Lead for Climate at GRID-Arendal, I work with a diverse team of experts to tackle the complex and interconnected challenges of climate change. I focus on bridging science and policy, and collaborate with partners around the world to co-create solutions that are practical, inclusive, and grounded in equity β€” with a strong focus on supporting communities on the frontlines of the climate crisis.

What I Bring

With a background in geophysics and cryospheric sciences, I bring both analytical depth and a collaborative mindset to my work. My experience spans research, capacity development, and international partnerships, with a focus on co-creating knowledge that drives fair and effective climate action. At GRID-Arendal, I help shape and deliver climate strategies that break down systemic barriers and support action at all levels β€” from local communities to global frameworks.

My Focus Areas

  • Catalytic Knowledge & Insight Generation
  • Collaborative Facilitation & Transformative Engagement
  • Leadership in Governance & Policy Shaping

In My Own Words

″The climate crisis is about more than carbon. It’s about people, justice, and the systems we choose to change or sustain.”″
