Megha Agrawal Sood

Megha Agrawal Sood builds the ecosystems where culture shifts. She is the founder of Project Junglee, supercharging the impact of the Global Majority through the lens of artists and adventurers, amplifying visibility, weaving solidarity and accelerating the narratives, ventures and collectives at the forefront of a culture in transformation.

Her career has been defined by the conviction that the right people, in the right room, with the right resources, can move culture at scale. As co-executive director at Doc Society, she founded the Climate Story Unit, a multi-pronged initiative that wove together production funding, regional networks and distribution partnerships to make climate a priority in culture. Under her leadership, the Climate Story Fund supported award-winning films including The Territory (Mountainfilm 2022), Against the Tide, Nocturnes and To Hold a Mountain; the Climate Story Labs network convened storytellers from Amazonia to Lebanon to the Pacific Islands; and the Climate Story Kitchen piloted new distribution models with public broadcasters, grassroots networks and streaming platforms.

Recognized as a champion in bringing new narratives into the mainstream, Megha brings vision and strategy to the intersections of art, activism and climate. Her previous experience includes helping purpose-driven organizations grow at the innovation firm IDEO, leading impact programming at the film company Exposure Labs and launching an outdoor Indian food company. She serves on the board of Mountainfilm, grew up in a beautifully rambunctious immigrant family in Sugar Land, Texas, and lives in Boulder, Colorado.
