Daze Aghaji is an environmentalist and cultural strategist whose work explores identity, belonging, and our relationship with the Earth. She began in human rights with Amnesty International before co-founding Extinction Rebellion Youth in 2019 while studying History and Politics at Goldsmiths, University of London. Her activism, rooted in grief and love for the planet, led to national media attention, running for election as the youngest MEP Candidate in 2019, and a successful judicial review against the UK government. Daze later became Creative Director at Earthrise Studio, helping grow the platform to 3M+ followers through storytelling at the intersection of climate and culture. She has advised Fortune 500 companies on using nature connection to drive climate action and cultural change.

Committed to using diverse forms of storytelling to make the climate crisis feel human and urgent, Daze took this ethos to mainstream audiences through her appearance on the latest season of Big Brother in 2024.

Now, she co-founded Absurd Intelligence, a narrative agency reimagining bold futures, and leads Speak Up, a storytelling and speakers agency, and Hard Art, a world-building cultural collective addressing the climate and democracy crisis. Daze bridges movements and institutions through creativity, systems thinking, and deep care.
