Knowledge for Sustainability was founded by Jacob Willie, drawing on nearly 20 years of experience in environmental assessment, consulting, data analysis, project leadership, and stakeholder engagement.
As a member of a specialist task force, Jacob reviewed environmental studies and proposed mitigation measures for a large-scale development project. He identified methodological shortcomings, provided written recommendations, and checked how they were addressed in subsequent submissions.
His consulting and project leadership experience is complemented by the Sustainability and Climate Risk certificate from the Global Association of Risk Professionals (GARP) and training in Environmental Impact Assessment and Mitigation.
You do not need to assess everything at once. We can begin with one environmental or social risk affecting a site, activity, or supply chain. Together, we define the question, agree on the scope, and review the available evidence.
Where sufficient data are available, the assessment can include estimates of potential financial effects.
