Responses to the climate crisis often exacerbate racialized inequalities, resulting in “climate apartheid” regimes and racist dispossessions.
In collaboration with the University of Granada, we are developing a model workshop that integrates GRIST’s emotionally-attuned, embodied, and creative methodologies into research, activism, and public discussions on climate justice.
This five-day workshop is currently being planned to take place in 2026.
Key questions
- How do we understand the relationship between colonialism and climate emergency?
- What are the implications of green colonialism and energy colonialism?
- How can we experience alternatives from the politics of liberation?
- What is racist dispossession in a century of increasing extractivism and climate-apartheid?
- What are anti-racist responses?
- What relevance does racism have in the civilizational crisis?
