Jennifer Milliken

I am an independent consultant with two decades of international experience working with public and private sector clients. I bring to the table:

• A global mindset and understanding, having directed the programs of 40+ issues-based conferences around the world 

• Good knowledge of debates in the climate action space, as well as social & environmental impact, gender & diversity and peacebuilding

• A gift for listening, hearing, and synthesizing.

My service offering includes the following:

Thought leadership:  You are an NGO with subject expertise and network reach, but you know that your insights deserve a broader audience and greater recognition. I can help you with mapping the debates in which you seek to be heard and planning how you can stand out.

Strategic communications: With your small team focused on delivering projects, you need some outside help with communication strategy (strategy review, brand positioning, key messaging).

Major conferences and events:  You are preparing an issues-driven event, and you need to make your event innovative in angles, formats and voices. Or you need to ensure a strong presence at a mega-event such COP, New York Climate Week, or the World Economic Forum Annual Meeting.

Process facilitation:  You are seeking a facilitator for multistakeholder exchanges or organizational development who has both gravitas and a sense of humor.

I am highly skilled at translating action insights and research findings for diverse audiences, having worked with foundations, NGOs, international organisations, and the private sector.

Among my clients: JP Morgan Global Philanthropy, Mama Cash, One Planet Business for Biodiversity, Sustainable Energy for All, L’Oréal for Women in Science, Geneva Peacebuilding Platform, UNHCR, WHO, ICRC, International Trade Centre, Coalition for Inclusive Capitalism, Women's Forum for the Economy & Society, Natixis Investment Managers, Sodexo, Danone, EY, Mazars.

I welcome opportunities to join a team, roll up my sleeves, and contribute to positive change.
