Joscha Wirtz
Program Manager, Environmental Engineer, and Educator
My passion is helping teams build and scale projects and organizations that contribute to a just and sustainable future.
I partner with organizations globally to build resilience by strategically integrating and scaling their sustainability and digitalization initiatives. This approach ensures long-term success and responsible positioning in a rapidly changing world. Leveraging my cross-sector experience, I empower teams to understand risks, develop crucial skills, and execute impactful programs.
My expertise is a toolkit we can use to design and implement successful projects together. Building on my background as an environmental engineer, these are the core competencies I bring to our collaboration:
Together, we will design comprehensive, measurable programs that unite your sustainability goals with your digital transformation. From managing multi-stakeholder programs to executing projects, I bring the structure, foresight, and attention to detail required to deliver results.
I help you build a digital strategy that truly serves your sustainability goals, not the other way around. We will map your current digital infrastructure, redesign critical workflows, and implement systems that reduce friction and amplify your impact.
Using established frameworks, I design and deliver customized training, workshops, and mentorship programs. The goal is to build lasting internal capacity, equipping your people to navigate the challenges at the intersection of digital and sustainable development.
I'll provide concise updates on trends, regulations, and research relevant to your digital and sustainability strategy, delivering critical information to your decision makers and audiences.
We can think about Earth’s health the same way we think about health in our own lives. Like people, our planet can only withstand so much stress before vital parts collapse. Human activities are pushing the planetary system beyond the limits that define the safe operating space for all of us.
Societies and systems rarely collapse suddenly. Rather, they gradually become insufficient. This is why the unfolding crisis affects people, geographies, species, and generations so unequally. As we overstep the boundaries, more and more parts of the world become difficult or impossible to live in.
Working across sectors, countries, and cultures has introduced me to the best of human ingenuity and reinforced my belief in our collective potential. My perspective is based on a simple premise: we must act with courage, care, and curiosity. This means embracing openness, hard work, and science. It also means responding to ambiguity with a commitment to finding and deploying solutions at scale, not with fear.
These challenges require the concerted efforts of organizations and institutions working together. This is why my work today focuses on guiding organizations through the two most significant transitions of our era: sustainability and digitalization. By uniting these two forces, we can build pathways to a just and thriving future.
I believe that our most complex challenges can only be solved together and am proud to learn from and contribute to the following communities:
