The conference will bring together thought leaders from social enterprises, leading brands, and certifying bodies to discuss and plan the future of ethical certification.
Jennifer Martin is the Executive Director of the Center for Resource Solutions and the Green-e certification programs, where she brings over two decades of NGO and private sector experience in renewable energy, energy efficiency, distributed generation, electricity markets and technology development, and electricity sector and climate change policy and regulation.

The Center for Resource Solutions (CRS) brings together expert responses to climate change issues with the speed and effectiveness necessary to provide real-time solutions. One of CRS's prime initiatives is Green-e, which certifies environmental commodities and products that mitigate climate change and help build a sustainable energy future. Green-e provides customers with clear information about clean energy products that enables them to make informed and socially conscious purchasing decisions. Green-e is referenced by other standards, including B Corporation, Cradle to Cradle and LEED.
Attendees of the Certification Consumption and Change Conference will hear a conversation between Ms. Martin, Kerry Coughlin, Regional Director of the Americas for the Marine Stewardship Council, and Han de Groot, Executive Director of UTZ CERTIFIED. The format of the conference allows attendees an extended period to question the panelists following a moderated discussion.
