Charlene Sequeira
Climate Designer working at the intersection of design, education, and sustainability
I am a Designer and Strategist who uses design to facilitate better ‘ways of being’ with each other and the natural world. Having worked in multiple design fields across 4 countries, I currently work for RISD with the Center for Complexity and Strategic Programs where I help develop skills and mindset needed to address complex systemic issues through the programs we deliver. Currently working with a sustainable seafood startup in Mumbai called Blucatch, I focus my ongoing design and consulting work on embedding sustainable design practices holistically in organizations. My past work has addressed issues around single-use plastics, the omission of minority-cultures in mainstream-curriculum, and systems design. My work has been featured at Pratt Institutes Sustainable Crash Course, Pratt Green Week, and the European Academy of Design Conference 2019 in Dundee - Scotland.
