Kady Cowan

Kady Cowan is Founder of the Sustainability Studio. She invites organizations and institutions to collaborate in the Studio where they have time to learn and practice combining sustainability, environmental protection, climate safety and a wholistic ecosystem perspective into both strategic and everyday activities at work. Kady facilitates the adoption of positive environmental behaviours while integrating ecological decision making in complex work settings. This tailored experience helps create conditions for effective staff and executive engagement so that transformative solutions emerge and persist for the long term.

Kady’s focus on learning, simple prototyping, appropriate scaling and evaluation of dynamic low-carbon projects and programs leads to the protection of environmental and human health, climate resilience, financial savings, and conservation of natural and energy resources. Kady has been proud to serve as a climate, environment and sustainability leader for local, national and international organizations including the Canadian Coalition for Green Health Care, Doctors Without Borders (MSF), Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) in Ontario, Atrium Health in North Carolina, and University Health Network (UHN) in Toronto.
