In this episode we speak with Dean Parwinder Grewal, nine months after his appointment as Dean of the University of Hawaii’s College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resilience, where he is already starting to make his mark - like changing what CTAHR stands for! We find out about his agriculture and education backgrounds, and how he found out about and why he accepted the position in Hawaii. We hear his vision for Hawaii’s resiliency and how that has shaped, and will shape, his work and that of CTAHR in the future.
