In this episode, we investigate the representation of working class voices in the UK’s environment sector, reveal exclusive ENDS analysis on the industry’s make-up and hear from those trying to break glass ceilings.New ENDS analysis shows that of more than 260 environmental professionals surveyed, more than two-thirds of respondents felt that working class individuals are either significantly or slightly under-represented in their organisations.Only a fifth felt this group was fairly represented. But the picture is arguably more nuanced that the data shows.To help wrestle with the numbers, in this podcast we speak to:Nadia Shaikh - a campaigner on land access and chair of the RAVEN networkDr Ciara Dwyer - a research fellow for DEFRA and co-chair of the Socioeconomic Equality and Diversity (SEED) networkSarah Mukherjee - chief executive officer at the Institute of Sustainability and Environmental ProfessionalsEmma River-Roberts - founder of the non-profit Working Class Climate Alliance
