With an M.Sc in Regulatory Governance from Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai, Shrikant brings a youthful enthusiasm to our program. After a short stint at Kabes media in association with the Karnataka Health Promotion Trust  as a research consultant, he joined Samvada as a Youth mentor in our Bangalore Center. With growing inequalities and the marginalised section of youth increasingly being denied opportunities and quality education, Shrikant hopes that as a Youth mentor he will be able to directly contribute to the sensitisation and empowerment process of young people. His interests also lie in research in the education and microfinance sector.
