Sarah Noble
Sarah Noble is a Canadian peace advocate and storyteller based in Geneva, Switzerland. She serves as Head of Global Engagement, Creative Peacebuilding & Inner Development at the Caux Foundation, where she leads programs at the intersection of arts, narrative, and inner transformation, including the Caux Forums. She hosts the Hummingbird Collective Podcast, exploring how people find the courage to create and rebuild in a world on fire, co-produced by the Caux Foundation and supported by UNESCO's Intercultural Leadership Programme (2025–2026). She is also the Curator and co-founder of PeaceTalks at Interpeace, a global platform dedicated to amplifying diverse voices for peace. Since its creation, it has grown into 28 events across 9 countries, with 8,500+ attendees and 200+ speakers — from elementary school students to a former UN Secretary-General.
With more than 20 years of experience in strategic communications, fundraising, and partnerships in peacebuilding and non-profit media, Sarah is passionate about the power of storytelling as a tool for healing and social transformation. She previously served as Director of External Relations at The New Humanitarian, where she led the organization's rebrand from IRIN News, repositioning one of the world's leading humanitarian journalism outlets for long-term impact. In her TEDx talk, Storytelling is Our Real-Life Superpower, she explores how narratives can inspire change and shape a more hopeful future. Building on this message, her second TEDx talk, The Power of Inner Reflection for a Better Future, delves into the power of inner reflection as a foundation for creating a better world. She holds an MA in International Affairs from the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs and a BA in Political Studies and Economics from Queen's University, and is an alumna and past president of the Geneva Hub of the Global Shapers.
