Kylie Nealis

Kylie Nealis worked at Global Exchange as the assistant to the Community Rights program at Global Exchange up until January 2013, helping communities confronted by corporate (and State) harms to organize in a new way—by passing cutting edge laws that place their rights above the claimed “rights” of corporations in addition to recognizing the rights of nature to exist and thrive. She is particularly interested in this work because she believes that true democracy involves individuals in communities being able to have the ultimate voice in the decisions that affect their lives and surrounding environment, not profit-driven corporations whose origins exist many miles away. Kylie is a recent graduate from the University of California, Santa Cruz with a B.A. in Community Studies and Politics.
