In this two part episode, we are joined by Dr. Curtis Ogdenis, a Senior Associate with the Interaction Institute for Social Chance (IISC), where he consults various organisations and communities on capacity-building. With his experience in regenerative practices as it relates to food systems, we picked his brain on how he bridges the gap between research and practice when creating equitable and inclusive social change.

As a Senior Associate at the Interaction Institute for Social Change (IISC), a 25-year-old Boston nonprofit, Dr. Curtis Ogdenis works with change leaders to build collaborative capacity. A progressive force for change, IISC focuses on power dynamics, sees networks as units of change, and views love as the power for social transformation.
