About Jennifer Hinton

Jennifer is a systems researcher and activist in the field of sustainable economy. Her work focuses on how societies relate to profit and how this relationship affects global sustainability challenges. She developed relationship-to-profit theory, which uses systems thinking and institutional economics to explain how key aspects of business and markets drive social and ecological sustainability outcomes. She started developing this theory in the book How on Earth, which outlines a conceptual model of a not-for-profit market economy – the Not-for-Profit World model. She holds a double PhD in Sustainability Science (from Stockholm University, Sweden) and Economics (from the University of Clermont Auvergne, France), and she has published several papers afterwards. She is writing a new book that offers an updated model of an entirely not-for-profit economy as a viable and desirable alternative to the for-profit economy we currently have.
