Alviya Maria John is a passionate book lover and great admirer of literature with a never-ending thirst for books and stories. Her world revolves in the pages of novels where thoughts are given shape by words, and imagination is limitless. A devoted reader, she finds solace in the great works of Paulo Coelho, enthralled by the depth of his philosophy and the magic that he wove around his narrative lines. Cold coffee is her ever-present companion, fueling both her late-night reading marathons and her own creative pursuits.
Beyond literature, Alviya is an economics student who is very interested in research and policy analysis. She studies complex economic issues, especially those regarding development and health economics. Her enthusiasm for academic inquiry propels her to question, analyze, and contribute to larger discussions in her sphere of learning. With a passion for deep research and publication, she continually looks at opportunities to bridge theory knowledge with practical impact.
Her journey as a writer extends beyond storytelling, documenting and analyzing the critical socio-economic challenges that society faces. Whether through literary expression or rigorous academic research, Alviya is committed to shaping conversations that matter, making her mark as both a storyteller and a scholar.
She is thrilled to be part of the Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL) where she get to explore how economics can make the world a better place while staying within the boundaries of the planet's resources.
