Our Living Encyclopedia is part of our work in creating Living Knowledges. Here you will find community led and scientifically rooted reportings that are in constant progression as injustice is an evolving phenomena. 

Living Knowledges is a realm where knowledge finds a sanctuary to flourish, evolve, and expand beyond the confines of conventional repositories. It is a dynamic space dedicated to storing and nurturing knowledge in a manner that allows it to adapt, transform, and grow with the passage of time.

This is a digital ecosystem designed to accommodate the vast array of information amassed by humanity. It goes beyond the static nature of traditional libraries and archives, embracing the concept of living ideas that continuously evolve. Thus, knowledge is envisioned as a living entity that undergoes perpetual enhancement and refinement. Every piece of information is treated as a seed, capable of germinating, branching out, and cross-pollinating with other ideas.

Standing Up for the Multi-Ethnic Working Class Women’s Health in the Climate Crisis Conversation

Today, 5 November 2021 COP26 will be focusing on Public Empowerment. We want to support multi-ethnic working class women in the conversation of climate justice and health equity. It is now common understanding that the climate crisis will not be affecting people equally, but little attention is given to understanding the pathways that fuel this inequity or clear strategies to rectify them. In this brief report, Centric will look at the UK to identify the demographic that is being put at most risk of poor health outcomes due to the ongoing climate crisis.
