We talk with Teju Adisa-Farrar, environmental equity consultant, multifaceted facilitator, and past inaugural Co-Managing Director of the Fibers Fund. She takes us on a journey discussing growing up zero-waste in a Pan-African household to her current focus on environmental and climate justice. We delve into the complexities and benefits of being a multi-hyphenate and the importance of reclaiming our positive relationship to nature thus reclaiming value within ourselves.

Teju is an environmental equity consultant, multifaceted facilitator, and was the inaugural Co-Managing Director of the Fibers Fund in 2023. She is the creator / host of the Black Material Geographies podcast, a 2022 honoree for the Conscious Fashion Campaign, and a member of the United Nations Conscious Fashion and Lifestyle Network—supporting work that aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals. Teju is an expert on alternatives with a focus on: communities’ design, sustainable textiles, creating regenerative fiber systems, and adopting climate resilient strategies for Black humans, Indigenous communities, and people of the global majority. Teju is a researcher, connector and multihyphenate living between New York and California.
