Throughout her career, Rozina has remained committed to promoting inclusivity in the environmental movement. She recognizes that the scale of the environmental crisis requires a collaborative effort that leverages the diverse perspectives and talents of individuals from all walks of life. Her environmentalism is rooted in justice, as she understands that the climate crisis is linked to other systemic injustices and one cannot be solved without the other.
