Esha Chhabra has been a writer and journalist focused on global development, the environment, and business for over a decade.
Her work has appeared in countless publications over the years. From The New York Times, Economist, Guardian, Forbes, The Washington Post, Fast Company, Wired, and most recently Time, Esha has been keen to get solutions-oriented stories out in the news.
She goes beyond the greenwashing to determine if companies are actually pushing the needle, what does regeneration mean, how can regenerative agriculture work for farmers as well as brands, and can mission-driven companies truly be profitable.
Her reporting has been supported by the UN Foundation, Ford Foundation, and the Pulitzer Center in Washington, DC. Her debut book, Working to Restore was awarded “Best Business Book of the Year” by the TataLit Fest.
Over the years, companies have hired her to help with editorial projects on sustainability and provide guidance on any of their ongoing impact projects. These include companies such as Levi’s, Pottery Barn, and Danone.
She’s also spoken at a variety of conferences, universities, and events on themes of sustainability and regeneration. These have included TED, TEDxGateway India, B Corp Champions Retreat, 1% for the Planet, Sustainable Brands Annual Summit, Loyola Marymount University, George Washington University, University of Massachusettes, and more.
Esha is a graduate of Georgetown University and the London School of Economics and Politics Science. Delhi-born, she calls Southern California home.
