How do you protect the pulse of the planet?
I protect the pulse of the planet by providing knowledge-based solutions to the challenges faced by the HKH mountain societies.
What is your favorite part of the work you do at ICIMOD?
The flexibility, scope for innovation, local-regional-global relevance of work that ICIMOD conducts is what I enjoy the most. Since our overall bio-physical environment and socio-economic situations are constantly changing and are connected across space, for any institution and its work to be relevant, it has to be flexible and innovative in its approach.
