Biography
Shruti Neelakantan is an Erasmus Mundus Master’s graduate in Environmental Sciences, Policy, and Management. Her research is built on the theme of India and environment politics and through an examination of state-level climate plans, she explores the variation in climate policy performance within Indian states. She will go on to analyze the potential drivers and impacts of sub-national climate politics to understand the Indian climate policy architecture. By examining the performance at the sub-national level, this research will be able to better explain the position of Indian national climate policies and identify areas in which EU and other external actors can engage towards fruitful international climate development.
