Choreography as Climate Action: Inspiring the Environmental Movement Through Dance

A Cultural Ecology seminar led by Subathra Subramaniam—choreographer, dancer and educator.

In this talk, Suba will share her experiences of working through dance to inspire climate action, and will discuss the importance of collaborating with scientists and working with youth activists to her practice.

Suba is the Artistic Director at Akademi—the UK’s leading South Asian Dance organisation. Suba was Co-Education Director of Cape Farewell—an international not-for-profit programme working to bring creatives, scientists and informers together to stimulate a cultural narrative that will engage and inspire a sustainable and vibrant future society. Suba was Artist in Residence at the Environment Institute at UCL, where she worked closely with climate scientists to investigate the value of dance as a means of raising awareness of climate change. She is also a trained secondary science teacher.
