Saideh Kent 

Saideh leads our Energy sector work at The Next Economy, supporting communities to manage the transition to net zero by identifying the complex problems, working collaboratively to find effective solutions, and highlighting proven examples. 

Saideh is an economic development professional with 20 years’ experience in the delivery of major infrastructure projects for the agriculture, water and energy sectors. Specialising in regional and remote community engagement, Saideh brings together stakeholders from community, all levels of government, industry, and not for profit and private sectors to develop collaborative solutions to complex problems. 

We work with communities, governments and industry to build regional economies that are climate safe, regenerative and socially just.

We rely on contributions from generous foundations and individuals to do what we do. If you like to contribute to a fair and resilient Australia, support our work today.
