Amidst several planetary crises of our fragmented burning world, poetry has a vital role to witness and to heal our relationship with ourselves, each other, and Mother Earth. In this session, multi-disciplinary poet, eco-artist, and climate justice advocate Neha Misra will share her transatlantic journey in poems.
Neha’s expansive worldview witnesses human complexity while rising beyond binaries across borders and hemispheres.Her poetry depicts a world based on radical vision, vivid experiential knowledge, and deep multi-cultural anchors. She dares to imagine a world in which art and care are the revolutionary acts we need to turn our various human disasters around and upside-down until we can see it all differently. Turning around, starting again. And in doing so, her poetry becomes a shared balm, a prayer, and a revolution.
- Neha Misra I नेहा मिश्रा is a first generation immigrant poet, contemporary eco-folk visual artist, and an award winning global climate justice advocate. Neha’s Earth stewardship centered multi-disciplinary studio builds bridges between private, collective, and planetary healing through the power of art. Neha grew up in the heart of India’s capital New Delhi whose soulful vibrancy is a part of her creative DNA. America's capital region is her adopted home where she embodies powerful creative reclamations of (re)imagination for transformational world building. In a reductionist world, Neha fosters conversations about possibilities of wholeness that can emerge by embracing the physical and metaphysical, complex and simple, old and new. In 2022, Neha was selected as a Public Voices Fellow on the Climate Crisis — an initiative of the OpEd project and Yale Program on Climate Change Communication to change who writes history. Neha is a Presidential Leadership Scholar, and a Regenerative Artivist with the Design Science Studio – an initiative of the Buckminster Fuller Institute and habRitual. She serves as the inaugural Global Ambassador for non-profit Remote Energy which is making the global solar energy movement more inclusive for people of color, especially women. She has been featured in National Geographic Magazine, Forbes, Ms. Magazine, Mothers of Invention, and The Washington Post.

- Shannon McArthur - Our Planet, Gaia is alive! She gave me a promise of Peace and a Plan for the transformation of Human society. My purpose is to bring Gaia consciousness to people’s lives to help Her be heard in their hearts. She speaks to each of us individually! Her gifts mystify, uphold and inspire me – I write about them, speak about them, am moved by them.
