A responsible sourcing specialist with 9 years' experience working on best practices in supply chains, with a particular focus on small-scale producers. Originally from a humanitarian background, her passion for supply chains started in the minerals sector, advising companies and governments on the importance of inclusive supply chains and the fundamental contributions that informal, small-scale production systems can make to an economy. Today, Olivia is passionate about the power that companies have to bring about social justice and ecological transformation in their supply chains. As Sourcing Coordinator at VEJA, she works directly with the families and cooperatives who produce the raw materials necessary to make our sneakers. This means developing long-standing and just business relationships with groups of people who have traditionally been excluded from global supply chains, giving value and recognition to those whose inspiring work is often a bastion of resistance against many of the exclusive and destructive production systems that dominate our supply chains today.
