Jyoti Benawri, State Head, Jhpiego

I am a medical doctor, working in public health with an experience of 30 years. I am working as State Head, Jhpiego for last 13 years based out of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. My key responsibilities in Jhpiego are to provide strategic leadership for multiple programs in the state, build strong government partnerships, manage teams, and ensures effective implementation aligned with state, national and global priorities. During my career, working with diverse organizations like Government, Ipas, International Planned Parenthood Federation and Jhpiego has enabled me to bridge clinical realities with strategic programmatic decision-making.

A fun fact about me is that I can remember random facts but forget where I kept my keys or why I have opened the refrigerator!!
