rêu collective is a not-for-profit group of 05 young and aspiring Vietnamese with transdisciplinary expertise in diversity and inclusion, decolonization, environment, design thinking, and community engagement.

Our first project - [s]ây - is a series of situated knowledge-sharing, creative and collective imagination workshops from an intersectional and decolonial lens focusing on climate change and climate justice.

In this project, we aim to recognize and amplify unheard voices in climate discourse, local knowledge in climate adaptation and pluriversal just futures.

For the second part, we shared and captured our climate stories in our local place through photovoice and puppet-making, explored different future scenarios by collage-making and unfolded our hopes by writing connected poems together.

I started with a research on climate anxiety in Vietnamese youth to understand how they feel about the climate change and what they imagine for their long-term futures.

In the first part of the series - the peer-learning sessions, we worked together to dissect the dominant narratives of climate change by mapping climate impacts; unlearn the westernised approaches for climate actions with discussion of climate myths; and understand the intersectionality of climate change through privilege flower.
