Narayan is an Earth advocate with experience in Switzerland, the US, and Ireland. In Geneva he worked for NGOs including International Bridges to Justice (IBJ) and the World Federation of Public Health Associations (WFPHA). He holds an LLB from the London School of Economics (LSE) (Lecturer’s Prize in Jurisprudence for best performance) and an LLM in Environmental Law and IP law from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA).
Narayan published PLOS research on climate‑health litigation, which analyzed the relationship between public health and the climate crisis based on the interdependence of human and non-human health. He is the author of the article, “Artificial Intelligence” in the chapter “Frontiers of Earth Law” in the 2nd edition of the legal textbook Earth Law: Emerging Ecocentric Law—A Guide for Practitioners (forthcoming, Feb 2026). He has litigated anti‑fracking cases in Ireland, authored the climate novel Earthmind, and passed the New York bar in 2024.
Narayan is part of a caucus that supported an Irish citizens assembly on biodiversity recommendation for the amendment of the Constitution of Ireland to recognize the rights of nature. He is motivated by the challenge of empowering communities to redesign their legal relationships with the living world through pathways to recognize non-human beings in law. He believes in a place-based, pluriverse lens of law rooted in healing, compassion and the dignity of all beings.
