C. Sara Minard, PhD.
Teacher and Design Thinker in Cambridge, Massachusetts
I have a PhD in economics from Sciences Po, Paris, and I teach social entrepreneurship, social finance, impact investing, and social enterprise for sustainable development, with a focus on food systems, at Northeastern University's D'Amore-McKim School of Business, and the Social Enterprise Institute in Boston. I also consult with global development institutions, companies, and foundations on design thinking and social entrepreneurship/social finance. I've spent 20 years working in international development on advancing private sector solutions for sustainable development, and worked as a socio-economist and policy analyst in West Africa, India, and Latin America. I love to sing, play music (piano and violin), cook, farm, and practice yoga. E-mail me if you like radical collaboration in any of the above areas, or just love design thinking applied to social problems, and have ideas on social and economic justice, social innovations for sustainability, and civic engagement linking faith and work.
