In this panel discussion interdisciplinary scholar, speaker, and author Farhana Sultana Architect, urban planner, researcher, professor, and curator Gabriela De Matos, and the founder and executive director of Climate Refugees, Amali Tower, will consider why, in the context of Loss and Damage, a fundamental rethinking of how climate knowledge is created, shared, and used is needed, one centering the voices and expertise of those who have been most affected by climate change but least empowered to shape its trajectory. This discussion will center upon the following key topics: Afro-Brazilian architecture examined through an intersectional lens of race, culture, and environmental justice, climate induced migration and displacement, and the urgent need to decolonize the institutions that govern climate science and policy.
