Surabhi Surve

I work in climate resilience and sustainability, with experience across India, London, and Brazil. My focus is on climate risk assessment, adaptation planning, and translating environmental data into practical recommendations that governments, researchers, communities, and housing focused organisations can use.

I have worked across research, policy, and delivery contexts, including housing, urban services, and informal settlement environments. At UCL, I developed a strong grounding in urban climate resilience, participatory planning, and housing related policy analysis. Alongside this, my work with the Aga Khan Agency for Habitat involved leading field research and technical analysis for water management, urban heat mitigation, and settlement level resilience projects, in close collaboration with communities, local authorities, and funders.

I have contributed to donor proposals, written policy focused reports and presentations, and supported decision making across multi-partner teams. I am comfortable working across disciplines and institutions, and I place strong emphasis on community engagement, evidence based adaptation, and approaches that lead to measurable outcome.
