In 1998, Nath co-founded the Non-Timber Forest Products – Exchange Programme and has coordinated its India office for over 20 years.[4]
The Fairwild foundation was established in 2008 to create a sustainable and fair trading system for wild-collected plant ingredients. Nath serves on their advisory panel.[3]
In 2013 she was given the Jamnalal Bajaj Award in 2013 for her "Outstanding Contribution in Application of Science and Technology for Rural Development". That award was made by the President of India – Pranab Mukherjee.[5]
In 2019 she was invited to the Presidential Palace, the Rashtrapati Bhavan in New Delhi. She was one of 41 women to receive the highest civilian honour for women in India - Nari Shakti Puraskar. The award was made by the President of India – Ramnath Kovind. Nath had been working then in eco-development and sustainability at the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve for 26 years.[5]
