Samanthi Theminimulle

Senior Research Manager

Samanthi works within the Just Transition team, and has worked across a range of research projects at The Young Foundation. She is motivated by making research more accessible and equitable, and loves research the most when it is used to redistribute power and bring communities together to co-create the change they want to see happen.

Samanthi has a background in political ecology and environmental justice, and previously worked on projects with communities and grassroots organisations in support of housing justice, climate justice, and urban spatial justice. She works predominantly with qualitative and participatory approaches and methods, and has done research both in the UK and internationally.
