Faye is the head of research at Green Alliance. She works on a range of issues, with a particular focus on the localism agenda, planning reform and what it means for environmental action. Her most recent report for Green Alliance, Is localism delivering for climate change?, provided new evidence and analysis of the degree to which localism offers opportunities and risks for progress on climate change.

Faye has also led Green Alliance’s work to build new alliances beyond the environment movement. She has previously worked at Involve, a public participation think tank, Defra, the Environment Council and the Environment Trust, a social enterprise in London’s east end.
