Kristina Inrig is a 2016 MPNL graduate and President and CEO of the Sustainable Capacity Foundation<\/a>, which works to build capacity among small nonprofit organizations in the environmental sector. After a Bachelor of Public Affairs and Policy Management and nearly 15 years of not being in university, Kristina Inrig went back to Carleton University for her Masters degree. She recently joined the Board of Directors of Environment Funders Canada<\/a> (formerly Canadian Environmental Grantmakers Network, or CEGN), which is a national network of foundations and organizations that support efforts to transition toward a more sustainable world, and she volunteers for other foundations, such as the Investment committee and impact investment team at the Laidlaw Foundation. On the 10th anniversary of the MPNL program, she spoke with PANL Perspectives<\/em><\/a> about her experiences in the program. (The interview has been shortened and edited.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
