What's Politics got to do with Veganism?

JIVINITI's guest this October is Sparsha Saha - a Harvard empirical political scientist, who is busy exploring this very important question on humanity's behalf through her research work. Our founder, Nivi Jaswal, speaks to Sparsha about how her vegan journey unfolded and what led to her decision to look into animal rights, food systems and politics so closely. We also discuss the launch of Harvard University’s first ever course on all these pertinent topics that Sparsha has spearheaded. It will be offered to students in the Spring of 2023. Learn more about Sparsha Saha on LinkedIn @https://lnkd.in/dJ8_DijR. In this interview, we were also joined by rising sophomores and co-founders of the Harvard Chapter of Plant Futures Initiative, Navin Durbhakula and Camille Freedman. We heard all about their plant-based transformation and how these young Harvard scholars are enthusiastically leading much needed student outreach and research efforts on their campus towards a plant-forward future!
