What is Sustainable Coworking?
Sustainable Coworking is a movement to create a more conscious and purposeful coworking industry that embraces sustainability in all aspects of business. Central to this are the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles that guide ethical business practices and interactions with stakeholders, the surrounding community, business partners, and the world as a whole.
Who is the Sustainable Coworking Working Group?
The Working Group was created to bring together people and organizations that are actively working at the intersection of ESG and coworking. The working group is made up of the following partners;
- Nate Heasley, All Good Work Foundation
- Iris Kavanagh, Women Who Cowork
- Amy King, Good Coworking
- Hector Kolonas, Included.co
- Nick Livigne, Incendium Consulting
- Andrea Pirotti, NewFlex
- Ashley Proctor, Creative Blueprint
- Clark Rinehart, SIVIK Communities
- Tracy Wilson, SUPER
Can I Join the Working Group?
The working group is open to any organization focused on areas of sustainability relevant to the coworking industry or commercial real estate industry, subject to the approval of the existing members of the group. Anyone interested in participating in the working group can contact us via our Google Group to request to join.
Individual coworking spaces can participate by signing up to follow the developments of the working group, and ultimately may be able to join as Sustainable Coworking Partners. More on that later.
