Asia has been involved with the Greens ever since their first reproductive rights protest in 2016, to which they went entirely by themselves – the first group they struck conversation with turned out to be Polish Young Greens, and the rest was history.
Over the years Asia has held various positions within the Young Greens – they served as a spokesperson for Warsaw YGs, then treasurer, international officer and later spokesperson of Polish YGs. They have also been involved with CDN and FYEG as participant of their events, working groups member and delegate to General Assemblies.
Currently they are Europe’s Regional Co-coordinator in GYG, Co-spokesperson of their local Green Party branch and YG’s delegate to the Polish Green Party National Council.
Their main political interests lie in bringing intersectional lens to local politics, de-Westernising global political discourse and reintroducing ethics into tech spaces and industries. Outside of politics, they enjoy gaming, 2nd gen kpop, parenting cats and taking entirely too long to finish their Computer Science degree.
