INSEE
I hold a Ph.D. in Applied Economics and a Law degree in International Legal Affairs. I have extensive expertise in economics, environmental studies, and institutional development. Coupled with hands-on experience in underdeveloped and rural contexts, I am well-equipped to contribute meaningfully to the International Society for Ecological Economics (ISEE) board.
My work focuses on environmental sustainability, institutional reforms, climate change adaptation, and financial inclusion, emphasizing developing and underdeveloped countries. My research and fieldwork in rural India and Africa have provided valuable insights into these regions’ socio-economic and ecological challenges. I have authored the book Domestic Regulations and GATS: An Environmental Service in India and published extensively in international journals on institutional economics, sustainable development, and climate change mitigation. My studies on solar energy adoption and renewable energy highlight strategies to foster community participation and long-term environmental benefits. I also bring expertise in financial inclusion, exploring ways to empower marginalized communities by integrating economic development with ecological resilience. My experience with organizations such as ICRISAT and the Planning Commission of India enables me to effectively bridge global objectives with local actions.
As an ISEE board member, I aim to advance research on global issues, foster international collaboration, and promote sustainable development models tailored to the unique needs of underdeveloped regions. I aspire to contribute to ISEE’s vision of a more equitable and ecologically balanced future by supporting policy advocacy, driving innovative research, building capacity, and strengthening outreach.
