Nish D

I am Nish Dewani, a passionate advocate for social change and a committed supporter of marginalized communities.

Professionally, I work as an Associate at the Centre of Excellence for Leadership at India Leaders for Social Sector, where I help build leadership capacity for India’s social sector.

I hold a Bachelor of Commerce degree from the University of Delhi and am currently pursuing a second degree in Economics, continuously expanding my knowledge and skills to make a more meaningful impact.

I am honoured to serve as a Young Changemaker Fellow with Pride Circle, where I contribute to advancing LGBTQIA+ rights and fostering inclusion. Additionally, I am the Founder of Naaz Be Proud, a platform dedicated to raising awareness about marginalized genders.

My dedication to gender equality and education extends to my volunteer work, where I actively support these causes.

Outside of my advocacy and professional life, I am also a trained Hindustani classical singer.
