I’m Ramakanta Naik, currently pursuing PhD in disaster management at TISS, Mumbai. I belong to a small farmer family from a small village Ambadula in Kalahandi district of Odisha. As I’m the first generation learner, it was very tough task to reach in to where I’m today. My schooling was from my own village then after finishing of my 10th I went to Bhawanipatna to pursue my further study in 2008. I finished my bachelor in geography from govt in the year 2013. I have done my masters in geography from Bhubaneswar in the year 2013-15. After completion of Masters I prepared for a year and got admission in integrated MPhil/PhD at TISS Mumbai.
