Anthony Dixon

Founder and Chairman

The Alliance for Sustainable Schools

Anthony Dixon is the founder and Chairman of The Alliance for Sustainable Schools and the CEO of metanoia, a consultancy that has worked with many of the leading schools in the middle east and Asia to measure and reduce their environmental footprint through a whole- school approach.  A former Managing Director with Citigroup Global Markets, Anthony holds degrees in physics, philosophy, sustainable energy engineering, and business. He believes school communities are microcosms of the global sustainability crisis, and that examining its dimensions on a more addressable scale in the daily life of schools, can help to shed light on the question of how ten billion people are to live sustainably on our finite planet.

Sustainable Schools – A Collaborative Systems-Based Approach

Description: The Alliance for Sustainable Schools (TASS) is a non-profit network of schools working together to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future. TASS is a vibrant community of practice for sustainability in schools, bringing together sustainability practitioners, students, and school leaders in schools all around the world to share best practise and tackle the most important sustainability challenges all schools face. TASS is also an influential agent of change. By harnessing the collective influence of its members, engaging with their students and partnering with innovate local organisations, it is catalysing systems change in five key areas – school buses, school food, school buildings and school uniforms. Anthony will present TASS’s approach and share case studies that illustrate the impact this approach is having.
