He has previously interned with Environmentalist Foundation of India (EFI) and attended training programs at Centre for Science and Environment (CSE). Abhijit has benefitted from the interdisciplinary approach of the UFP and has leveraged the skill labs to publish an article deliberating infrastructure choices for small towns. He is interested in working in think tanks or organisations that practice research advocacy, where he can contribute towards formulating policy decisions.

At the UFP, Aditi gained a wider perspective on labour, public health and ecology in urban India, learning about the past and present state of these issues and developing innovative, multi-disciplinary ways to resolve the challenges. Over the course of the programme, she has honed her research and reporting skills and is keen to exercise them in an organisation that focuses on academic research, consulting or journalism.
