Marion Adda, Renewable Skills Project Manager
Master in Sustainable Development and Project Management, Bachelor in Law | Environmental Professional in Training
Marion grew up in a small village in France, surrounded by monocropping farming. She understood early the impacts of intensive agriculture on local communities and lands. Cultivating her environmental awareness by listening to people's stories, she graduated with a multidisciplinary Master’s degree from Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne University.
Starting her career managing environmental studies and procedures for new public transit projects, Marion then immigrated to Canada and worked in different industries. Pursuing her goal to apply her project management skills-set in meaningful environmental initiatives, she heard from Iron & Earth at a conference in Calgary. The Renewable Skills pathway was the great match in a fast-growing environment.
Through her own life experience, Marion realized the incredible human capacity to adapt to changes. She is excited to give back to communities by accompanying workers to transition toward renewables energies.

Iron & Earth was founded within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Métis homelands and Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional territories of many First Nations, including the Nehiyaw (Cree), Denesuliné (Dene), Nakota Sioux (Stoney), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux), and Niitsitapi (Blackfoot).
Iron & Earth acknowledges that our work takes place on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of Indigenous Peoples across Canada. We recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and the deep connection that Indigenous communities have with the land, water, and environment. Our commitment to a Just Transition is informed by Indigenous land stewardship principles. We are dedicated to fostering partnerships with Indigenous communities, respecting their sovereignty, and learning from their knowledge and traditions. We strive to ensure that our initiatives are inclusive and support community-driven climate solutions, contributing to a sustainable and equitable future for all. We honor the diverse histories, languages, and cultures of Indigenous Peoples and commit to continuing our journey of learning and reconciliation as we work together toward a thriving green economy.
