Julia Sterling is a socio-environmental communicator and researcher located in the ancient unceded and unsurrendered terriroty of the Anishinnaabe and Algonquin peoples, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. 


Julia holds an undergraduate degree in Global & International studies with a focus on globalization and the environment. She recently graduated with an MA in Political Economy at Carleton University where she collaborated with 11 members across Canadian civil society organizations to uncover cross-crisis lessons from Canada's COVID-19 vs climate response to reimagine more urgent climate action. Since graduating, she has been committed to knowledge mobilization transforming her thesis 'The Climate Virus' into 6 formats: a 160-page document, a 10-page executive summary, a short film, a 3-minute thesis pitch, a conference presentation and customized professional workshops.

Currently Julia is inspired by the need to cultivate a radical imagination for a new world that adequately addresses the complex socio-environmental challenges of today from a point of reconnection, regeneration, equity and justice.
