About:
Yashvini Shukla is a civil engineer, geospatial scientist, and sustainability advocate with a deep commitment to protecting biodiversity through advanced geospatial analysis and regenerative finance. Her expertise spans remote sensing, life cycle assessments (LCA), machine learning for climate science, and the application of Web3 technologies in carbon credit markets.
Currently pursuing a PhD in Geospatial Systems, Yashvini integrates data science, fluid mechanics, and environmental modeling to address key sustainability challenges. Her work focuses on using geospatial tools to track deforestation, model land degradation, and improve conservation planning for at-risk ecosystems. Passionate about circular economies and regenerative development, she explores how technology, climate finance, and decentralized systems can enhance environmental resilience.
Yashvini draws inspiration from beavers—nature’s engineers—who shape entire ecosystems through their work. She applies a similar philosophy to her own projects, developing science-driven solutions that support both human progress and ecological balance. Through her research and advocacy, she aims to bridge the gap between engineering, climate action, and biodiversity protection.
