About the Speakers

Aditi Punj Sood's journey in Anthropology led to a deep exploration of food and agriculture. She has worked on farms since 2012, spanning the US, Singapore and India, including Navdanya with the remarkable Dr. Vandana Shiva.

She’s grown food in the ground and greenhouses, on rooftops and vertical racks. A big believer in food and farming as equalisers, Aditi has been teaching and designing engagement programs on environmental education for 10 years. Most recently, she’s written a curriculum for Living Soil, with the intention of creating open spaces for conversations and learnings on regenerating the interconnected communities below and above ground.

Nithya N Laila has dedicated a decade to educating people of all ages on the importance of culturally diverse diets and quality farm to table artisanal produce, while preserving biodiversity and ensuring longevity of the planet's resources. In addition to her sold out cultural dining pop ups and farmers markets, she is an award-winning TV presenter on Channel News Asia Singapore for 'Edible Wild', a traveling docu-series featuring how ultra urbanites of Asia's megacities grow, forage and cook with indigenous ingredients. Her current focus is on a biodiverse diet for the Global South, creating mindshifts in the value and aspiration for locally grown ingredients. She has been profiled for her work in the field of sustainability in Vogue, Tatler, Female Magazine and Singapore Tourism Board amongst others.

Megan Sin Megan finds herself with multiple foots in different fields — in performance, in experimental writing, in literature and in gardens and not-gardens. Seemingly unrelated but all connected, through love for food, care for nature and humans.

Currently, she is the co-editor of Foodscape Pages and the second issue of The Sauce - On Seeds, and endeavouring into research on ecofeminism, looking forward to where she will be heading next…
