The Climate & Collective Liberation project was dreamed into being by Michelle Xie (she/her), a climate & disability justice organizer, artist, and sociology student at the University of British Columbia, which is situated on the stolen homelands of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səl̓ilwətaɁɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) peoples. As the UBC Climate Hub’s Climate Resilience Lead, Michelle co-develops resources and programming to cultivate the social infrastructure, collective capacities and cross-movement collaborations needed to respond to the climate crisis. She is also a coordinator with Climate Justice UBC, facilitator at the Climate Justice Organizing HUB, and creator of the Water Damaged Paper Anthology — an indie, community-based, and justice-centred publication by/for young marginalized creatives. Much of her work engages in political education, caring & creative approaches to personal/systemic transformation, and relational organizing towards more livable worlds.
