The Sunrise Project – Director of Legal, Risk and Governance

The Sunrise Project takes a ‘directed network’ approach to campaigning that builds the power of social movements to win large-scale change that would not be possible by individual organisations acting alone. Acting as a hybrid campaigning and funding organisation, they support social movements to build their power and apply pressure where it counts, whilst also working with regulators and parts of the business community that are committed to climate action.
