Grace Yogaretnam

Centre for Social Innovation

In Kindergarten Grace developed a 10 point plan detailing how she would grow up to be a Thundercat/Jedi Knight. Today she works at CSI, which, as everyone knows, is basically the same thing. Before joining the team Grace was actively involved in federal politics, Toronto’s ENGO sector, and property management. Originally from Alberta, she completed her BA in Environmental Studies and Political Science at York University in Toronto. Following graduation, Grace worked her way across Canada as a farm hand on small-scale organic farms. She believes that crises are opportunities to be seized, that the best way to influence is by example, and that good food tastes better with good friends. She is also madly in love with the Canadian landscape.
