What does Soil To Sky do?

An organisation that seeks to explore and teach the concepts of queer ecology, intersectional awareness, and how the centering of queer/trans people of a global majority – and their voices in natural history – will not only save the planet, but further our understanding of conservation practice, scientific method, and get queer People Of Colour front and centre when it comes to wildlife and the environment. The name "Queer Rootz" comes from the understanding that far before the impacts of colonisation – and before eurocentric, heteronormative, patriarchal standards and values were placed on how we learnt about and observed nature and wildlife – indigenous communities of colour embraced how flexible and queer the environment actually is, and used that to reflect upon themselves and conserve this nature sustainably and comfortably.
