Shreyasnh Budhia

The Nature People Network

I am an environmental economist and conservation advocate, and am the founder and director of The Nature People Network. Here, I assist local communities and conservationists by providing grantmaking, mentorship, strategic planning, and bureaucratic assistance. I’ve led the the launch of a few conservation projects, including the successful declaration of an official river conservation reserve through a local village council.

In the past, I worked with Mongabay Corporation, conducting due diligence for global carbon credit projects, helping pitch special reporting projects, and contributing to investigative research in biodiversity conservation and environmental policy.

I’ve also worked extensively and published research in the domain of carbon offsets, sustainability, financial modeling, ESG investing, conservation finance and business development, and have explored the nexus of economics, tax policy, and environmental sustainability. 

In my free time, you can find me checking-in on my wild striped hyena friend’s cave or drinking coffee! Currently, I’m pursuing a Master of Science in Applied Economics and Applied Analytics at Boston College.
