A graduate of Kamala Nehru College in Psychology and Human Resource Management, Kriti is currently pursuing her Master’s in Applied Psychology from Amity University.

Journey with Aahan and Adivasi girls started out as an internship but slowly made her a part of something even bigger. Her interaction with the girls in Jharkhand exposed her to the bitter truth of the inequalities of our education system and the wide divide between rural and urban areas.

This led her to her mission of mentoring and educating Adivasi girls with foundational level communication skills and through the CREATE model she aims to go a step further by focusing on social-emotional development.

Creating a safe space has helped the girls come forward with their stories of courage and everything that they have ever been through. She aims to bring forward these stories and help these girls break the glass ceiling.

She is also interested in understanding the impact of Domestic Violence on the mental health and development of women and children in Jharkhand.

Aahan supported Artee through our Fellowship program ‘Urja’ in which, besides special training on Madhubani painting, she learnt skills such as leadership and digital literacy. Through this program, she received training from national level Madhubani artists.
