Content Director-Panel Manager, India Africa, 2017 Harvard India Conference
-
Oct 2016 - May 2017
*I conceptualized and planned the India Africa Session as a unique, cutting edge Panel of the 2017 Harvard India Conference to explore the benefits of collaboration between India and the Continent of Africa as two emerging powers with the core objective of promoting South South Cooperation. India and Africa share a strong historical background of trade and diplomatic ties as well as similarities in terms of human & material resources, large population and more recently, the surge of Innovation. I designed the Content and chose the speakers and Moderator to focus on the possibility of leveraging the collective strengths of stakeholders in both regions and analyse the anticipated outcomes and impact of structured partnerships within various Industries in India and Africa covering the Tech, Media, Healthcare and Public Sectors.

Sep 2016 - May 2017
HKS has about 50 percent Foreign Students from over 90 Countries and given the excellent quality of Knowledge and human newtworks this Institution provides us, I believe more International Students deserve the opportunity of immersive learning of best practice in all ramifications and sectors that are transferable to our different regions especially developing countries post Harvard. I'm advocating for, working to seek partnerships and leveraging collaborations for the Improved Funding for Non-US Citizens, a more diverse Course Listing with more contextual focus on Africa, Latin America, Europe, Asia & the Middle East and facilitated Policy Workshops and Focused Group Conversations on the US Government's Leadership and the Policy Implications for the International Community.
