I am thrilled to announce that I have received my second grant from the National Geographic Society. This grant from the Society’s Freshwater Initiative will allow me to continue working on my project documenting the impact of the Green Revolution in Punjab, India. In the coming months, I will spend a lot of time in Punjab, paying special attention to the region’s groundwater crisis and rise in cancers.

I am also deeply honoured to now join the National Geographic Explorer community, where I will have the opportunity to learn and collaborate with some of the most exceptional researchers and storytellers.
