Kristen Pue, Ph.D., is a senior policy analyst/advisor and former academic focusing on climate resilience and social policy.
I am a senior policy analyst/advisor in the federal government. From 2020 to 2021, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in philanthropy and nonprofit studies at Carleton University’s School of Public Policy and Administration. I have a Ph.D. in Political Science at the University of Toronto.
My Ph.D. dissertation examined the relationship between welfare nonprofitization and service expansiveness in Canada and the U.K.
I also co-host a podcast called Pullback.
Pullback is a podcast that explores big new ideas and asks: is this a real solution or a distraction? In discussions with leading experts, we cover ideas that proponents say will address global problems like inequality and climate change. We have released more than a hundred episodes since we launched in 2019.
