In today’s episode I’m chatting with Daze Aghaji, a climate justice, regeneration & well-being activist. I met her for the first time last year in Glasgow, when she was working as a Creative Director for Earthrise Studio. She’s now the artist in residence at Phytology, a cultural institute based at the Bethnal Green Nature Reserve in East London - and works with Extinction Rebellion’s strategy team.
We spoke about the importance and beauty of reconnecting with the land, about the Right to Roam campaign, and respecting the boundaries of the Earth. Daze is also a historian so she told me all about the Enclosures, which she believes was the starting point for the ecological emergency we find ourselves in now. She also shared her experience living on a boat in Central London - which she said really helps her feel more connected with nature but also serves as a reminder of how we’re impacting nature, as she sometimes spots very random things floating on the river - the most random one being a duvet.
