It is not often that there is a platform successfully bringing together emerging professionals working on the various aspects of a particular river basin, let alone the Brahmaputra basin, which is already under-researched. Therefore, this session on "Young Professionals of the Brahmaputra Basin" attempts to bring young professionals working on diverse research initiatives to talk about the river and what inspired them to engage with the river. And to provide with hope that the purpose of disentangling the river is being pursued by the younger generation and the possibility of peaceful co-habitation with the river might just be realized, maybe somewhere in the near future!
