Sam Doove
Sam is a Director at Ethical Fields – a consulting business that develops and implements community wealth building and place based capital initiatives alongside communities around Australia.
Her diverse experience in a variety of roles including research economics, government policy and advisory, accounting and business has guided her deep curiosity of how communities could create economic systems that are more localised, people centred, equitable, sustainable and inclusive. Sam has a particular interest in empowering and helping local people to have greater ownership and control of assets, enterprises and initiatives in their community, and loves uncovering the many success stories of communities taking the lead.
Outside of Ethical Fields, Sam is involved in many grassroots initiatives in her home town of Lake Macquarie including the Lake Macquarie Sustainable Neighbourhood Alliance and the Lake Mac Repair Café.
