Born and raised in Singapore, Rachel Cheang is a settler and uninvited guest here on stolen Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh homelands, and a recent UBC graduate. She is involved in various climate justice, divestment, and disability organizing and enjoys creating spaces of collective care.
Cheang believes in the power of collective action in mitigating climate change and seeks to explore and build networks of care and support within justice movements.
A new campaign urges the University of British Columbia and Simon Fraser University to use their money divested from fossil fuel companies to back projects with social and environmental benefits to local communities.
