Creative Climate Leadership: A Conversation with Ceyda Berk-Söderblom

Conversations on Creative Climate Leadership is a new podcast from Julie’s Bicycle centring stories from our global community of Creative Climate Leaders who champion the role of culture in climate activism. Over six episodes, our hosts musician and zoologist Louis VI and JB’s Climate Justice Lead Farah Ahmed talk with some of our Creative Climate Leadership alumni who have generously shared their personal insights on navigating the climate crisis and creatively leading transformative change.

In the latest episode of the Conversations in #CreativeClimateLeadership podcast, arts manager and curator Ceyda Berk-Söderblom joins hosts Louis J. Butler and Farah Ahmed, along with choreographer Dawit Seto, for a compelling conversation on the role of creativity in climate leadership from the Global South.

This thought-provoking episode dives deep into how creative practices and sensory expressions—beyond just words—offer innovative approaches to addressing the climate crisis. Ceyda, Dawit, and the hosts share valuable insights on why diverse perspectives and non-verbal forms of communication are key to shaping more inclusive and impactful climate solutions.
