Tarun Mehta

Tarun is currently working with one of India’s leading policy research think thank towards the objective of making climate transition just and equitable. His long-term goal is to take the amalgamation of climate change and development forward through his independent, yet integrated and scientifically rigorous research. As a Kabir Banerjee fellow, he aims to (a) understand and contribute to the existing knowledge on the role of political economy institutions in determining India’s hitherto growth path, and (b) offer policy-relevant recommendations around recalibrating these institutions to respond to the imminent developmental challenges posed by climate change.
