Biographical Information

Martin Wright is editor and publisher of Forum for the Future's magazine. He notes: "I’m a regular Chair of Forum events, including those in partnership with The Guardian.

"Studied Politics, specialised in international conflict and the Islamic world, and wrote about same. Deep visceral enthusiasm for the countryside and the natural world translated into an interest in the way environment, development and politics interact. Edited Tomorrow Magazine and Environment Digest; was Environment Director of Media Natura; wrote and co-produced Go Wild! (kids series for ITV); wrote Our Backyard (Channel 4/Observer Films). Won a number of awards, including Science and Environmental Journalist of the Year.

"Edited Green Futures for four rollercoaster years, 1998-2001, then stepped back into 'editor at large' mode, to make time for other work, notably with Ashden Awards, Demos and Futerra. Was lured back on board as Editor in Chief in 2008, and am glad I was!"
