About me

In my pursuit to spread the mission of environment, I studied plant science, worked for the World Wide Fund for Nature-India. Following this i was granted the fellowship of the German Academic Exchange Service to do my post graduate studies from the school of Environment & Social Sciences from the University of Saarland in Germany. I was offered the German Academic Exchange Service Scholarship to achieve 22 European credits in the field of water. Currently, I have spent around 15 years in the development and NRM sector. I have been the recipient of the Fulbright Nehru Environment Leadership fellowship to my research on how Community supported agriculture and organic certification can enable a socio-economic and ecological change for the farmers.

My Green Mission

I have a non profit which works towards issues of environment education, rural-urban diffusion, soil and water issues and ecological farming. The name of the banner is Eco & Agro Resource Management. I want to spread the mission of caring for our water and land resources by creating livelihoods around our natural resources.
