Nathalie Kiepe is a master's student in philosophy at Università della Svizzera Italiana, and she works part-time as a scientific collaborator for the Swiss Portal for Philosophy, philosophie.ch. Within her master’s programme, she wishes to further research the role of creativity and imagination in relation to innovative solution finding and to explore possibilities of harvesting ground-breaking ideas for a regenerative future. Nathalie is convinced that a general disconnection to nature is the biggest challenge we face when addressing the climate crisis, and she believes that philosophy can play a major role in reconnecting capitalist-driven societies to nature, reimagining new ways of living, and bringing about societal change.
