from Loreto House in Kolkata, then completed her graduation in law from the Depart-
ment of Law, Calcutta University, securing second position. Thereafter, she pursued an
LLM in Human Rights Law from Queen Mary University of London, United Kingdom, and
a Graduate Diploma in Law from London Metropolitan University. She has a keen inter-
est in human rights of women and children, and frequently writes on these areas, and

-ordinator, along with Olga Sidenko from Switzerland, for Soroptimist International
President Sharon Fisher’s Appeal: The Road to Equality. It is through this role that
Ayushi has been able to gain immense exposure into the larger world of Soroptimism
and the advocacy work done by Soroptimist International at the United Nations.
