Known as Ethically Kate — New Zealand Herald columnist, TEDx speaker, author, and one of New Zealand’s leading voices on conscious consumption and sustainable living.
Kate Hall — known online as Ethically Kate — has built one of New Zealand’s most influential sustainability platforms through content creation, journalism and education. She is a TEDx speaker, a published author, a regular columnist for the New Zealand Herald, and the resident sustainability expert for Newstalk ZB. Her work focuses on helping people navigate conscious consumption, ethical business practices and personal wellbeing — not through guilt or perfectionism, but through practical insight and genuinely useful thinking.
What Ethically Kate has understood, and built her platform around, is that sustainable living is as much a communication challenge as it is a practical one. Her years of content creation have given her a detailed understanding of how people engage with environmental messages — what resonates, what repels, and what actually changes behaviour over time. Her columns, books and broadcast work reflect this understanding.
For sustainability, retail, consumer goods, media and lifestyle conferences, Kate Hall brings the credibility of a journalist and the accessibility of a content creator who communicates with — not at — her audience. She is particularly effective for organisations seeking to reach consumers who care about sustainability but feel overwhelmed by the complexity and are looking for a voice that is honest, practical and genuinely on their side.
Kate Hall is a keynote speaker based in New Zealand who speaks on education and sustainability & ESG. Book through Executive Speakers Australia.
