Pratyush Rawal is a recent graduate of the Master in Public Administration (MPA) program at Harvard Kennedy School, where he currently works with the Candid and Constructive Conversations (CCC) Initiative. Before HKS, he founded Sadbhavna.in in India, an initiative dedicated to countering hate and polarization through dialogue. At HKS, he co-led the Engaging Across Differences Caucus, organizing events that fostered conversations across divides, especially after the events of October 7th last year. His passion for peacebuilding and dialogue is deeply personal, inspired by his family’s history of migration during the Partition of 1947.
