About

Dr. Amy Harris is an experienced research manager and scholar. From the UK originally, Amy has now lived in Vancouver for the last 15+ years where she has recently completed her PhD in climate communication at Simon Fraser University. Her research investigates the role of museums and exhibitions in helping publics connect with climate futures. She now brings that focus to UBC and the CCJ, where she is working to advance climate justice principles across multiple interdisciplinary projects, making their findings accessible and usable, and supporting the affiliated faculty and students. She is also working on a book project with two colleagues, provisionally titled Grief, Decay & Futurity: We Need New Ways to Talk About the End of the World which brings together many of these interconnected issues. Both her scholarly work and her role as manager of the Digital Democracies Institute at SFU have prepared her well for the Centre for Climate Justice, and she is thrilled to be able to apply her skills to support the activities of the CCJ at this significant time. When not working at the CCJ you can find her hiking, on her road bike, or at the gym!
