I was part of a fascinating panel discussion focused on exploring lessons from the past few years and opportunities that can be leveraged to advance global goals for health, food security, and climate change. Raisina Dialogues: I was invited to participate in the Raisina Dialogues, an annual high-level conference on geopolitics and geoeconomics. It’s called the Mahindra Treo and I had a lot of fun taking it for a drive. Prajakta is a member of our foundation’s [Goalkeepers Advisory Group](https://www.gatesfoundation.org/goalkeepers/the-goalkeepers/advisory-group/), supporting the global effort to fight poverty, disease, and inequity around the world. But my travels left me truly inspired and optimistic about the future. Seeing digital transformation: In Bangalore, I visited the urban community of Halasuru to learn about how digital banking can help reach poor communities and underserved communities. Postal workers, who are very trusted in the community, provide banking services at the doorstep of their customers. What’s exciting is how this institute is sharing its innovations to help farmers around the world adapt to climate change. Last year at the age of just 13, Anshul won three gold medals and became the youngest winner at the World Youth Bridge Championship. Ramnath Goenka Memorial Lecture: It was an honor to deliver the Ramnath Goenka Memorial Lecture hosted by Indian Express, an Indian English-language daily newspaper. I am excited to see how India can play a key role in making progress on today’s biggest challenges. She and I had a wonderful talk afterwards about India’s goals towards reducing TB and how Mumbai has been a leader in trying new approaches.
