Speaker Information
Christopher DuMont, CEO and Founder, Alpine Sustains
Chris is the CEO of Alpine Sustains, a social networking platform for community development that matches community members with projects. He has worked on community engagement and climate action initiatives with a focus on inclusiveness and holistic systems thinking. Some of his experience includes helping community boards in NYC find funding opportunities for small climate adaptation initiatives, working on climate and water issues at NGOs and the UN, as well as supporting a climate adaptation consulting firm on community-based climate resilience, climate migration and nature-based solutions.
All of his experiences included some form of stakeholder mapping and engagement and he always felt that not everyone was included in the discussion who should have been. As a concerned community member, he also tends to feel that it is often difficult to find and get involved in local community projects. So, he has taken his knowledge in holistic systems thinking and passion for ensuring that everyone should be easily included in their community’s development to build Alpine Sustains. Alpine Sustains is looking to publicly launch soon to give access, voice, and empowerment to anyone wanting to make their community more sustainable.
