LFA Fellow

Shalini Bharat is the founder of two interconnected climate ventures. The Kind Business helps companies design and optimize circular business models. Nadhi-SheForClimate is a community empowering women (cis, trans, and non-binary) to become climate leaders through mentorship, skill-building, and support networks.

She built both after 17 years in tech, finance, and operations, including as COO of Corporate Bank at Deutsche Bank India. That operational background shows in how she approaches ecosystem building: she works directly with diverse stakeholders to develop climate resilience strategies that are community-driven and practically grounded.

Terra.do's LFA program was a catalyst in her transition, giving her clarity on the climate landscape and connecting her to a community of practitioners she works alongside today.

Shalini's work connects circular design and gender equity within climate leadership: a combination that addresses both what we build and who gets to be part of building it.
