Shreya Nair

Shreya Nair , a 16-year-old student , is a change-maker, academic achiever, and co-founder of The S.H.E Initiative (See. Her. Empowered.) — a student-led movement empowering underprivileged girls and women through education, self-defense, and health awareness. A passionate advocate for equity and empathy, she has led impactful workshops for domestic workers, initiated literacy sessions for young girls, and taught self-defense to many underprivileged girls and women. Shreya is the Vice Head of the Paryavaran Club, where she actively promotes sustainability and social responsibility. A brown belt in karate and an aspiring biologist with a keen interest in stem cell research and genetics, Shreya blends scientific curiosity with social consciousness. She believes empathy is not a soft skill, but a force for change — and that true leadership begins when we listen, include, and uplift those around us.
