Colin Bogle

A graduate of the Josef Korbel School of International Affairs, Colin Bogle is a first-generation Jamaican immigrant with a passion for building climate resilient food systems. This passion is informed by his experience on the frontlines of the climate crisis in his hometowns of Portmore, Jamaica and Houston, Texas. Specifically, his lived experiences as a descendant of rural farmers have informed his work experience at the intersection of community organizing, grassroots campaigning, socioeconomic inequality, and sustainable development. He is especially interested in community-centered agricultural models, smallholder farming, agroecology, and climate resilience in small island developing states. He speaks English, French, Spanish, and Jamaican Patwa.
