Kannan Thiruvengadam is the Director of Eastie Farm, an eco- friendly urban farm in East Boston which brings neighbors together, promotes community resiliency and fosters food security and justice. He also hosts the Zumix youth-involved radio show, “What’s up Eastie?” about topics of interest in East Boston. As a Climate Ready Boston Leader, Kannan blends his broad background in technology, climate science, permaculture, regenerative and sustainable agriculture with his passion for community engagement and activism.
Kannan will present some of his work and discuss how to engage communities and solve problems together. This interactive session will be an opportunity to explore together how to identify opportunities in our own communities to integrate natural systems and biodiversity using just and inclusive practices to move our communities towards climate justice.
