Kevin Thomas
Kevin is growing the investor voice for a sustainable economy: SHARE mobilizes more than 130 institutions to collectively advocate as investors for a sustainable, inclusive, and productive economy and over the past two years have engaged more than 160 companies to make substantial commitments on climate change, water stewardship, Indigenous reconciliation, decent work and human rights. In partnership with the National Aboriginal Trust Officers Association, SHARE is embedding Indigenous reconciliation in institutional investor policies and practices: the Reconciliation and Responsible Investment Initiative has engaged 288 people in their regional trust workshops and helped 15 companies establish new Indigenous rights policies since 2018. SHARE has also pioneered engagement on a just transition to a low-carbon economy, securing full re-deployment for employees who lost jobs in coal-fired plant closures.
