Poromboke, Tamil for commons, has degraded in colloquial Tamil to a caste-loaded pejorative referring to worthless places and people. Revealing Chennai's unevenness as read through water and the lens of Poromboke, the city's youth will lead a masterclass on what ails the city, and what they are doing to repair it.

Anchored by Nityanand Jayaraman, a political ecologist and solidarity activist at Chennai-based Vettiver Collective, the session will include interventions by:
J. Prasanth, Vishvaja Sambath - Chennai Climate Action Group
Harish, Kavya, Dharani and Dinesh (School students) - Vyasai Dr. Ambedkar Pagutharivu Paadasalai (School of Critical Reason).
Benisha and Karthik Gunasekar, Aram Thinai
