Who We Are

Who We Are

Uniting Artists and Scientists for Climate Action (UASCA) is a coalition uniting artists of all genres, scientists, educators, and environmental and community organizations. Guided by principles of kinship, reciprocity, and stewardship — including philosophies rooted in Indigenous traditions —we bring art and science together to expand public understanding of climate change and inspire collective action.
