After years working as a community organiser, Kaya moved to Oxford to work on connecting climate action communities internationally. She has earned distinction for her research on politically unlikely renewable energy coalitions. Her current research and engagement focus is on the emerging net zero governance and regulatory landscape. Kaya has served as a strategic advisor to the UN-backed Race to Zero campaign and as a technical author on the International Standard Organization’s Net Zero Guidelines. With 15 years of experience in social and environmental sustainability, she convenes and works regularly with organizations and policy leaders on their net zero strategies.
