Tatjana Trebic

Affiliated Researcher

Tatjana holds a Bachelor in Bioresource Engineering from McGill University and a Master in City Planning from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Her research at BCNUEJ explores how various cities, communities, and projects in Canada and the United States measure social and environmental well-being and in particular how they assess the effects of their sustainable development interventions on social equity.

She is interested in how people construct or reconstruct their lives in the face of change and inequity in their neighborhoods and communities. She recently worked as a Mayoral Fellow on urban education and small business policy in the City of Chicago Mayor’s Office and before that spent time with a social impact investment startup bringing capital to small and medium-sized agricultural businesses in Ghana. Her hoome base is Montreal, where she previously studied and worked on university campus energy savings and renovation projects.
