Harsh Sharma enjoys understanding how systems work. Whether it's a business, a city, or a public institution, he is naturally drawn to exploring why things are the way they are. While his academic background is in business, his interests have gradually expanded to include data analytics, psychology, governance, and public policy. He is driven by the belief that meaningful insights come from careful observation, thoughtful inquiry, and a willingness to question assumptions. At Nāgrika, he finds a unique opportunity to bring these interests together through research that connects history, governance, and civic understanding. He is based in Delhi, India.
