Shristi Adhikari, Nepal

As an agricultural student, I love doing experiments and exploring. I apply these experiences out in the field as well. I have started a project on 'The Impact of Climate Change on Women in Agriculture in Nepal'. Background research shows that women are most often marginalized in agriculture. This project focuses on empowering women farmers by teaching them conservation agricultural practices in the field. The importance of women’s equal access to agricultural resources and opportunities is critical, and I am committed to working on making this a reality.
