As a Social Innovator, Jemima’s role is to support the implementation of the TACSI action areas and strategy.
She joins TACSI part-time while undertaking a Master of Transdisciplinary Innovation (Research) at the University of Technology, Sydney. In this project she is exploring the role of futures thinking in experiences of agency and apathy around social challenges.
