Before transferring to Japan, Kendra worked with Greenpeace International in Amsterdam, where she supported national and regional Greenpeace offices in the development of their energy campaigns and coordinated the organization’s international nuclear work. During her time with Greenpeace, she authored several in-depth reports on issues related to the nuclear industry, the ecological consequences of Fukushima, and human rights.
