Purvaai Bhatnagar is a fourth year Economics and Environmental Studies undergraduate student at the University of Toronto and will be an Environment, Climate Change, and Security Junior Research Fellow this Summer. She is passionate about climate policy and is currently a Compliance Analyst for the G20 Research Group supporting research on Argentina and Brazil’s greenhouse gas reduction progress. At the NATO Association of Canada, Purvaai is looking forward to learning how natural resources are managed from an economic lens to better understand how current trends and events affect the environment we share. She hopes to eventually advise governments on their environmental economic policies especially in nations with geo-political challenges. Purvaai has also researched cases of biodiversity offset programs and carbon cap and trade programs, and she looks into terrorism, global peace, and ecological threats data as an Institute for Economics and Peace Ambassador.
