Professional Experience: |
I worked as a Senior Research Assistant in the WASH space with Centre for Environmental Health at Public Health Foundation of India (PHFI). Here, as part of one of my main responsibilities, I worked on a WASH project for schools based in low-resource settings that entailed development of SOPs and learning modules as well as conducting teacher training workshops to enable them to deliver the module to school children. I also worked on piloting a community development project based in a slum cluster of Delhi focused on water and sanitation.
Subsequently, I worked with the Revitalising Rainfed Agriculture Network as a Young Professional for their Water Working Group, working on policy advocacy issues pertaining to rural water, irrigation and other aspects of agrarian livelihoods, focused on rainfed areas.
