Malini Mehra is the founder of the Centre for Social Markets, a non-profit working on sustainability and corporate responsibility in India and with the Indian diaspora. With a background in NGOs and government bodies – including Oxfam, Friends of the Earth, the UK government and the UN – Mehra currently sits on several corporate boards, including Unilever, Hewlett-Packard, Kimberly-Clark and BHP Billiton. A 2008 CNN profile described Mehra as having “appointed herself chief antagonist to the Indian government on climate change”, whether she plans to return to this role under the new Modhi government is to be seen, but she has the capacity to speak to and with an impressively broad range of countries and sectors, and thus the potential to be a strong leading voice and ability to help groups talk to each other.
