About Me
I’m Bhogtoram Mawroh.
I am a geographer by training and I do research and help design interventions on issues connected to Agrobiodiversity, Agroecology, Food Sovereignty and Indigenous Food System in North East India in general and Meghalaya (India) in particular. These research interests are complimented by activism which include organizing movements and influencing public narrative on issues of identity, nature of economic development, workers’ rights, environment and policy impacts.
