Abhishek Patil

I am an aspiring Environmental Anthropologist with specific research interests in conservation, sustainability, political ecology of offset programs, social and environmental justice. I work in the intersection of culture, society, and environment. My experience as a researcher is mainly associated with socio-ecological interlinkages and socio-cultural studies of communities in India. I also have a brief experience of leading projects with a development organization in Rwanda. Currently, I am working with Dakshin Foundation on themes related to Blue Economy, Blue Justice, and Blue Carbon. With experience in research and grassroots engagement with community-based projects, I also bring a combination of technical expertise, program management skills, and a deep understanding of community dynamics.
