Talia Goldman

Talia is a committed sustainability and nature advocate. She currently works as the ESG Manager for Colpac, an on-the-go food packaging manufacturer, where she leads on multiple strategic projects including net zero and deforestation free supply chains.

Prior to this, she has spent the last 5 years working in political communication, nature campaigning, and sustainability. This includes leading pan-European engagement on the 2019 European Elections for the European Parliament in Brussels and as Co-Director for UK Youth for Nature (UKY4N), the UK’s leading youth movement calling for urgent political action to address the nature crisis, where she now sits on the Board.

In 2021, she was seconded as a Policy Advisor to the Cabinet Office on the UK’s COP26 Nature Campaign. Using her experience in forest supply chains and campaigning, her work here led to advancing policy on illegal deforestation, driving forward the meaningful participation of Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities, and engaging business.

Talia has a BA in French and Russian from the University of Bristol and an MSc in Environment, Politics and Society from UCL. She is found happiest in the water.
