Lauren co-leads the WBA’s investor engagement strategy. She connects investors and investor-focused platforms to the work of the WBA.

She sees these actors as key catalysts for transformation across the Sustainable Development Goals. She is particularly interested in systems thinking, and connecting the dots across transformation areas to the work of the financial industry. Lauren also contributes in thinking and collaboration via different work streams within the WBA on the topic of human rights.
