Guppi Bola is an organiser and educator. She has a passion for supporting groups who are committed to meaningful transformative change and who are working towards building an economic democracy rooted in racial justice principles. She wrote on these themes for Common Wealth using her 15 years of experience in climate, economics and public health.
With her academic expertise in public health, she focuses her strategic thinking on the root causes of social inequality and ill health. Guppi applies this in her design of intersectional policy and campaigns that will help bring about a just transition, working alongside social justice leadership globally. It is for this reason that Guppi has spent the past five years establishing Decolonising Economics, alongside her partner in crime Noni Makuyana
Guppi also holds skills in training, facilitating, campaigning and organisational development which are rooted in an anti-oppression practice. Throughout a decade of work, she has established a reputation for bringing sincerity, strategy and soul to her partnerships in organisational transformation.
Guppi completed a role as Interim Director of Medact September 2018-July 2019 and held the position of Chair of Joint Council for Welfare of Immigrants from 2019-2021.
