In 2009, Divya Nawale was a fresh engineering graduate from India, chosen to join an expedition to Antarctica as a youth environmental champion among hundreds of applicants. This set her on a trajectory to choose a career in climate action. Over the past decade, she has traveled and worked across all seven continents on sustainability and clean energy projects in the corporate and development sector. From grassroots activities like setting up solar-powered microgrids in the Himalayas, to engaging with Arctic policymakers in Reykjavik, and even going back to help lead expeditions in the Antarctic.
