I build multilateral partnerships and policy solutions for migration, global health, and international cooperation.
What I'm looking for
I've built partnerships and funding pipelines for global health and migration initiatives across UN agencies, diplomatic missions, international organisations, and think tanks.
At NNEdPro Global Institute, I secured and managed partnerships with around 25 multilateral organisations, foundations, and academic institutions across India, Brazil, Mexico, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the US, and the UK. I led approximately 50 grant proposals that secured over £500,000 for public health initiatives serving vulnerable migrant populations.
I also helped scale the Mobile Teaching Kitchen Initiative across India, reaching more than 100,000 beneficiaries, and contributed policy research and peer-reviewed work on food security, health, and migration. At IOM, I reviewed more than 70 donor reports, coordinated funding requests from 40+ field offices, and supported humanitarian appeals including the Joint Response Plan for Rohingya refugees.
My work spans multilateral diplomacy, human rights, migration governance, and policy analysis, including representation at the Human Rights Council for the Maldives and support for Global Compact for Migration dialogues. I'm particularly interested in India’s foreign policy engagement in multilateral systems and bringing rigorous research, stakeholder coordination, and policy writing to complex global challenges.
