Laureline Simon

Laureline has worked on climate change mitigation and adaptation at the international level since 2006. At the United Nations Climate Change Secretariat, she supported the setting up of the Local Communities and Indigenous People’s platform, a task force on population displacements related to climate change, and coordinated Resilience Frontiers, a pioneering collective intelligence process bringing together thought leaders in the fields of digital technology and sustainability.

In the world of Julie Sperling

Rocks are my main staple in my work and for me they contain so many possibilities. You never really know what’s going to be inside when you crack it open – how it will behave, smell, look, and sound. There’s a whole world just waiting to be revealed.

Nunatsiavut by Eldred Allen

“A scull (group) of Harps seals swimming on their backs is a common sight where I live, but revealing their patterns and movement from an aerial perspective provides an entirely new level of intrigue and appreciation.” Eldred Allen

How can we transform mindsets to address climate change?

The Earth is reflecting back to us that it is reaching certain limits and that the path we have been taking has no future. But I don’t see a kind of breaking point, more of new relationship patterns emerging here and there, connecting and forming new resonance fields. At some point it will have become a totally different system.

What can Inuit teach us about climate change and mental health?

“Now that we have this climate crisis on us, there’s so much human and other-than-human loss. So we need new skills and we also have to change our understanding of the power of grief and see it as a politically mobilizing force…”

In the world of Entangled Others

To me community is our human re-enactment of the forest. Together we intertwine and grow, creating our own micro-climates and connections that can nurture and support each-other as well as create space for a rich ecosystem of others to find their place within.

About Nature by Kaija Kiuru

“My eyes are fixed to the distant point where the mire and the forest meet, I can see the blue silhouette of Oratunturi Fell arching behind them. Crooked birches stand on peat islets running through the mire, I feel the rich smell of the mire in my nose. The sky is wide, and the earth. And the mind.”- Kaija Kiuru
