ABOUT CHENTHURA PARAMESHWARI BALASUBRAMANI

I’m a Sustainability and Governance professional with a background that bridges engineering, operations, and social impact.Currently pursuing my Master’s in International Relations and Diplomacy at Schiller International University, Paris, I’m deeply interested in how structured systems can drive inclusive and sustainable development, especially within United Nations organisations.My journey began in Chemical Engineering, where I learned to approach challenges through data and systems thinking. That foundation grew stronger during my years as an ISO Internal Quality Auditor and later as Operations Manager in a SaaS company, where I worked on process optimisation, compliance, and performance reporting.Today, as a Sustainability Intern at Serve the City Paris, I help design and strengthen ESG frameworks for programmes on food distribution, language exchange, and refugee integration. I’ve drafted sustainability and social impact policy, created key performance indicators (KPIs), and established procedures that align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, particularly SDGs 2, 10, 16, and 17.What drives me is building structured yet human-centred systems, ones that make impact measurable and lasting. I’m eager to apply this mindset to future roles across UNITAR, UNDP, UNESCO, UN Women, UNEP, or other international organisations that focus on governance, sustainability, and people-centred development.
