Bio
​
I started my initial years working in academic publishing houses and then found my way into TERI, a world-renowned think-tank specializing in climate change and sustainable development. This enriching experience gave me a deep insight into the overwhelming issue of climate change and the associated attitudes, policy preferences, and behaviour, and the underlying psychological, cultural, and political factors that influence them. This experience encouraged me to join the bilateral cooperation project between the European Union and the Government of India. Currently, I am working at the Secretariat of the Coalition of Disaster Resilient Infrastructure.
