Former NTV journalist Smriti Vidyarthi has landed a new job months after leaving the Nation Media Group station.
In a video announcement, Smriti said that she has now joined global organization The Nature Conservancy (TNC).
She will take the role of executive communications officer for Africa at TNC.
"I'm turning the mic and lens to nature. I'm excited to announce that I've joined The Nature Conservancy (TNC), a global conservation organization whose mission is to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends.
"TNC offers a powerful platform for change, and as TNC's executive communications officer for Africa, I can't wait to tell our stories as we conserve our precious landscapes and oceans for people and nature," Smriti said.
The Nature Conservancy is a global environmental organization headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, United States.
As of 2021, it works via affiliates or branches in 79 countries and territories, as well as across every state in the US.
The announcement comes about three months after she announced her TV exit.
The Seasoned TV presenter left Nation Media Group after 16-and-a-half years of service on NTV prime time news programme.
Smriti hosted NTV Weekend Edition, NTV Tonight and NTV Wild Talk.
“Sixteen-and-a-half years of service to the Nation Media
Group and to the nation at large. Thank you for trusting me. For now, tune in
tonight at 9pm for my last bulletin on NTV,” she wrote.
