Katharine Knox leads the Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust (JRCT)’s Power and Accountability Programme where she works to strengthening democratic and corporate accountability, encourage responsible media, and support work that responds to the dual harms of the Covid-19 pandemic and systemic racism. Prior to that, she spent years researching, advocating, and leading climate justice programs.
Early this summer, we sat with Katherine to discuss her work with JRCT’s power and accountability program, climate justice, and key lessons learned over the years that can be carried forward as the call for climate justice gains momentum globally.
