Pooja Kishinani

Pooja Kishinani is a wanderer, dreamer, and writer based in India. She holds a degree in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics and is the co-author of ‘Student Guide to the Climate Crisis’. She has worked with the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, the RSPB, Manchester Centre for Youth Studies, and Policy@Manchester on research projects and campaigns exploring the intersection of climate, economic, and social justice.

Since July 2023, Pooja has slowly drifted away from academic and policy circles, following her curiosities about the power of the collective imagination as a tool of resistance, co-liberation, and dreaming new worlds into being. She currently works at ten (The Emergence Network), an underground network of postactivist practitioners interested in exploring other ways of knowing, being, sensing, relating and responding to the crises of our time. She lives and breathes stories, and can almost always be found at her local library immersed in the wor(l)ds of Ursula K Le Guin or scribbling away in her notebook.
