Sabrina is a researcher, educator and multi-award social entrepreneur committed to building a socially just and ecologically sustainable society. She is a postdoctoral researcher at CSIRO, and in her research, she explores innovation and exnovation dynamics in postgrowth food systems transitions. Adopting a cross-scale perspective, she analyses how beyond-GDP frameworks could unlock the potential of postgrowth enterprises.

She has been working for a more sustainable society for more than 15 years, leading numerous collaborations in various countries, including an initiative with Queensland’s Environment Minister to introduce the law banning single-use plastic bags. To translate her circular economy knowledge and vision into practice, in 2017, she founded the Brisbane Tool Library, a circular organisation that encourages people to borrow tools, camping gear and other equipment to reduce productivism and consumerism. Sabrina is also the co-founder and editor of the Degrowth Journal, a journal that embraces slow science and advances a decommodification of knowledge.
