Development Director @Environmental Data and Governance Initiative

The Environmental Data & Governance Initiative (EDGI) is a network of caring and committed members, primarily volunteers, from multiple academic institutions, non-profit and grassroots organizations, as well as professionals from a broad spectrum of other work and life backgrounds. We analyze federal environmental data, websites, institutions, and policies with the aims of improving environmental data and information stewardship and promoting environmental health and environmental justice. We work in collaboration with other organizations and communities concerned about climate change, science policy, good governance, and environmental and data justice. We are a collective, self-organized into working groups. We practice different kinds of collective decision-making and strive to be an equitable and non-hierarchical organization.
