Luisa Miranda Morel

Luisa is the Inclusive Climate Action (ICA) Forum and Academies Senior Manager. Her role involves leading on the set-up and implementation of the ICA Forum, a platform for peer-to-peer learning between 20+ champion cities across 5 regions. Additionally, Luisa leads on all other city peer-to-peer engagement activities for the ICA programme, supporting cities in sharing knowledge and best practices on overcoming critical socio-economic and environmental justice barriers. This work is critical to accelerating inclusive climate action, a green and just recovery, a just transition and the pilot implementation of a city-led Global Green New Deal (GGND). Luisa joined C40 as a Project Officer for the ICA team in 2019 and since then was primarily involved in overseeing the delivery of the climate-migration partnership between C40 and the Mayors Migration Council (MMC). Prior to joining C40, Luisa had worked with CARE International and other organisations in Nepal, the Philippines and Colombia. Luisa holds an MSc in Building and Urban Design for Development from the Development Planning Unit (DPU) at the Bartlett, UCL. Luisa has lived in Mexico, France, Colombia, Nepal and the UK. She is fluent in English, Spanish, French and recently started learning Italian.
