Local Voices. Global Justice.An open environmental justice advocacy platform
EJA Chapters are shaped by the students and young people who investigate environmental injustice in their own communities. Meet the chapter leaders connecting local justice questions with research, education, storytelling, and community action.
Leads EJA Kashmir, where the chapter investigates access to clean water, biodiversity loss, and ecological restoration, alongside native reforestation and wildlife corridor work.
Leads EJA Nanjing, investigating heat and health through environmental education and community action, as part of the organisation she founded.
Danielle Pan founded the EJA Youth Research & Action Network to connect environmental evidence with lived experience, legal and policy analysis, and meaningful community action. Her interests span environmental engineering, emerging green-energy technologies, environmental law and policy, and the human factors that influence the adoption of environmental solutions. Through EJA, she works to create opportunities for young people to investigate local environmental challenges, collaborate internationally, and translate interdisciplinary learning into practical action.

Leads EJA Lahore, where the chapter examines heat and health through environmental storytelling, photography and visual documentation, environmental education, and community action.
Leads EJA BNU Experimental High, where the chapter investigates respiratory health and industrial pollution through oral history, field-based research, digital mapping, and environmental art.
Chapter leaders create an environment in which members investigate environmental problems critically and develop informed responses.
Chapter leaders are not expected to be experts in law, psychology, or research. EJA’s model supports interdisciplinary learning and responsible inquiry, and the scale of a chapter’s outputs should match its capacity.
This page lists EJA Chapter Leaders only. It is separate from the EJA staff directory and from the Global Youth Ambassador Programme. Chapter leadership and ambassador participation are noted only where that relationship is confirmed.
