Hannah Ballard

Global Shaper, Manchester Hub

Hannah is the Founder & Director at Sustainable Change Studio: a climate communications consultancy using storytelling to mobilise change - without greenwashing. Sustainable Change Studio works with impact-driven organisations at different stages of their climate journey to develop effective strategic communications, accessible education, and engaging creative outputs.

She is also the Regional Development Associate at Sustainable Ventures, supporting the development of a robust ClimateTech ecosystem across the UK to catalyse innovation that addresses the climate crisis and resource scarcity.

Hannah leverages a decade of strategic communications and community engagement in emerging technologies like AI and blockchain to accelerate and amplify just solutions to the climate crisis, responsibly. She is passionate about making conversations around environment, ethics and emerging technology understandable to the people who will be most impacted by them. She has spoken about this on stages, panels and podcasts at the World Circular Economy Forum, General Assembly, McGill University, MozFest, the ITU (UN agency) and more. She has lived on 3 continents and consulted for clients from a dozen countries across Asia Pacific, Europe and North America.

Recently, Hannah completed her Master’s with Distinction in Climate Change and Development at the University of Manchester. She is a Climate Reality Leader who has trained two cohorts of Climate Reality Leaders, a mentor committed to empowering rising innovators and aspiring changemakers, and a Global Shaper at the World Economic Forum, where she leads on the Manchester Hub's Climate Conversations project. Climate Conversations is surveying Greater Manchester citizens to develop a baseline of what people know about climate change, and what action they want to see taken locally. With a special focus on communities who aren't traditionally included in these conversations, the project will develop an initiative based on the community's feedback.

Outside of work she is a slow travel enthusiast, avid reader and amateur cultural critic trying to see as much of the world in the most ethical and responsibile way possible.
