Medha Dhagat leads Impact Communications and Leadership Development at Connecting Dreams Foundation (CDF), a grassroots leadership development organization committed to driving sustainable development from the ground up. Her work focuses on enabling a shift from inclusion to leadership, ensuring communities are not only participating in change but shaping it on their terms.

She began her career in PR & Corporate communications, drawn to the power of storytelling. Over time, she transitioned into the impact domain, driven by the belief that equality isn’t just about representation- it’s about action. Working closely with communities, she saw how open dialogue and access to knowledge can shift perspectives and inspire confidence. Medha believes meaningful change is rooted in clarity, trust, and respect, where voices from the ground are heard and shape the way forward.

“As a visionary leader, I focus on listening and creating space where communities feel trusted and ready to lead in their way.”
