Shreya was the former National Network Coordinator at Nepalese Youth for Climate Action (NYCA) and is a Board Member of Clean Energy Nepal. Being an active member of YOUNGO, the children and youth constituency of the UNFCCC, and the contact person for the NDC working group, she has worked with a diverse group of young people worldwide to champion the meaningful participation of young people in decision-making spaces. She is also the Campaign Coordinator at Mock COP and was recognised as the climate change champion by UNICEF South Asia. Shreya is also the Wellbeing Focal Point for the Iris Prize grantees.

She's a biologist and conservationist with an MSc in Natural Resources Management (with the application of GIS and remote sensing). Much of my work and passion are oriented toward conservation research, implementing projects, and networking. I am also a National Geographic Explorer and received a research grant to evaluate the impacts of tourism revenue in Rwanda.
