Carli Leimbach is an Innovation Lead at WWF currently designing the 'Innovate to Regenerate' national challenge, a former Learning designer for the ABC establishing the first emerging leaders program, a design thinker for Google and the 2019 Fempreneur in residence at the UTS Business School.

Born and raised inside a family of creative rebels, she believes in the power of innovative thinking to challenge the status quo and change the world.In the Covid years, Carli explored what her personal and professional contribution might be in tackling the climate emergency and to live into the question of how do we think and act regeneratively - in the way we design and how we can learn better to enable the places where we live and work to thrive.

Now she finds herself leading a national regeneration challenge with an amazing team at WWF-Australia committed to finding and funding innovative solutions that benefit communities, drive economic recovery and support regenerative business.
