Vice President - Communications and Marketing

CARPE EcoSattva is a hybrid social enterprise headquartered in Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad). Our vision is to build sustainable inclusive and climate resilient cities, towns and villages. We do this by identifying and implementing partnerships enabled and research and data driven solutions to pervasive civic challenges. With a team strength of 58, we offer services in Solid Waste Management, Green Cover Management and Water Body Restoration

We have worked in multiple Urban Local Bodies in India and internationally, including in Buenos Aires in Argentina and Denpasar in Indonesia. Our work has recently won prestigious prizes like WRI Ross Center Prize for cities, St. Andrews Prize for the Environment.

The recent MoU signed by Hon. CM Devendra Fadnavis in Davos marks a critical milestone in Maharashtra’s commitment to climate resilience. With the state’s backing, Sambhajinagar now has a unique opportunity to lead the way in implementing a robust district climate action plan. The Kham River Restoration Mission stands as a testament to the power of collaborative, data-driven climate action. Our district can set a precedent for developing proof of concepts, standards, processes, and ultimately the blueprint for integrating wetlands into climate readiness strategies. We are helping CSN stand as a model for the state’s positioning in building climate resiliency—showcasing how governance, industry, and citizen-led efforts can be replicated, scaled, and sustained to create significant environmental impact.
