Aarisha Haider
Project Manager
Aarisha has a background in Political Science from the University of British Columbia and has accumulated over 4 years of experience in climate justice, decolonial research, and project management. Throughout her studies at university, she felt there was a disconnect between academia and collective action until she found herself participating in a global seminar in Peru that introduced her to the concept of the Rights of Nature-- a concept which would later shape her passion in climate justice. Living and learning from the Indigenous
Kichwa-Lamista community informs the work that she does to this day.
When Aarisha isn’t honing her skills in Capoeira, you’ll likely find her at a concert, strumming her guitar, singing, or dancing. Her dream job as a child was to be an Artist!
