Welcome to the On My Coast podcast, where we will be sharing the stories of people on America’s coasts, whose experiences and challenges have inspired and been the focus of Sea Grant’s work for over 50 years. The National Sea Grant College Program, or Sea Grant, is a Federal-University partnership program that brings science together with communities for solutions that work. It was originally created through an act of Congress in 1966 and the state and national programs work together with community partners to create and maintain a healthy coastal environment and economy.
In this episode of On My Coast, we’re joined by Beth Lenz (Assistant Director for Diversity and Community Engagement at Hawaii Sea Grant), Keith Ellenbogen (Associate Professor of Photography at SUNY the Fashion Institute of Technology & Visiting Artist at MIT Sea Grant), and Syma Ebbin (Research Coordinator at Connecticut Sea Grant & Associate Professor in Residence at the University of Connecticut) for a roundtable-style conversation about art and science. Portions of this live conversation have been edited for clarity.

Let's Talk TLEK

Local knowledge reflects the observations and experiences of people living in a region who may be, but are not necessarily, indigenous. Together, Traditional and Local Ecological Knowledge are pragmatic, holistic, and often emphasize interconnectedness between people and nature.
