Gunisha Aggarwal
Economics
As a WIHEA Student Fellow, Gunisha
co-led a project on AI accessibility
and literacy, ensuring that student perspectives shape
the future of education. Her insights have enriched
panels and networking events, bridging dialogue across
disciplines. Gunisha’s leadership extends to Enactus
Warwick, where, as President, she led seven probono consulting projects and four student-run social
enterprises. These initiatives empowered marginalised
communities, raising over £5,000 and delivering more
than 50 impactful events. Gunisha’s work is visionary
and transformative, leaving a legacy of compassion,
courage, and lasting impact across local, national,
and global communities.
