Director - Global Climate & Development Institute

About the Organization :

Swaniti Initiative is a fourteen-year-old social enterprise that is working at the intersection of climate, governance and last mile delivery. We believe that while the willingness and resources exist, there are fundamental gaps in the execution within communities that is the biggest crisis in the climate movement.

Swaniti works with subnational governments to conduct microplanning exercises in consultation with communities and key stakeholders, provides technical assistance to subnational governments toward implementation and supports in monitoring and delivery of programs. A significant focus of our work within climate and governance is on preparing the private sector and communities for energy transition.

Through the Climate & Sustainability vertical, we deliver research-backed solutions, policy guidance, and partnerships that drive energy transition, resilience, and sustained livelihoods across India and beyond.
