Aadya Singh

With a decade-long commitment to exploring the intersection of livelihoods, environmental conservation, and skill development, Aadya has emerged as a dedicated professional in the field. With a master's degree in Development Studies from IIT-Madras, she honed her early expertise in rural livelihoods and environmental conservation through impactful roles at CHIRAG and WWF-India, and Leap Skills.
Motivated by a passion for non-traditional livelihood support, awareness generation, and agency building for rural and small-town youth, Aadya now spearheads India and Bharat Together (IABT) as its founder. Her commitment extends beyond her primary role, as she generously volunteers her time to manage The Himalaya Collective, a digital platform fostering collaboration and information sharing among organizations in the Western Himalayas under the umbrella of Vikalp Sangam.
In addition to her professional endeavors, Aadya is also a naturalist, musician, photographer, and writer. In her leisure, she finds joy in exploring new mountain landscapes and contributing to various platforms through her freelance writing.
