ABOUT SARAH BARDEN
Creative reporter and communications strategist with experience across Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa. My work explores the socio-economic impacts of climate change – from disrupted ecosystems and broken food systems to mass displacement – and how robust policies, nature finance, and original storytelling can shape solutions.Career highlights encompass designing sustainable development campaigns and multimedia content for leading UN agencies and the World Bank. Before becoming an independent consultant, I spent a decade breaking international news headlines as a journalist for Al Jazeera English, BBC World, and Reuters, while crossing continents as a travel writer for Time Out. Known for delivering results under tight deadlines in multilingual media settings, my portfolio spans video and podcast creation, top-tier media relations, and high-profile event management.Whether it’s charting the struggles of those living below the poverty line, coaxing a coherent quote from a diplomat, or crafting a story with real human resonance, I enjoy challenges that advance social equity, peace, and justice.Languages: Bilingual in English and Spanish; fluent in French and Italian; strong command of Portuguese; and by now, appalling Arabic.Citizenships: United Kingdom and Ireland.
