Anne Hammill is the Associate Vice-President, Resilience at IISD. In this role, she leads IISD’s work on climate change adaptation and the links between the environment, conflict, and peacebuilding. She also directs the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) Global Network, for which IISD serves as the Secretariat.
With a background in geography, Anne has over 20 years of experience addressing the social dimensions of environmental change. She works with governments and civil society organizations to put climate change adaptation at the centre of decision making—particularly through national adaptation planning processes.

She also focuses on how ecosystem management and resource governance can contribute to conflict prevention and peacebuilding, and was a founding board member of the Environmental Peacebuilding Association.
