Proud Graduates

From the First Cohort

This year, I was able to participate in the Shoktikonna Leadership Cohort. The program allows young women to develop knowledge and skills in the field of renewable and clean energy while also connecting with industry experts. The experiences have been extremely beneficial to my personal and professional development, and they may help pave the path for future success in the industry.
