If you don't have write permissions to your shell configuration files (e.g., `.bashrc`, `.zshrc`), you'll need to ask your system administrator to initialize Conda for you, or use a local Conda installation within your home directory. Alternatively, consider using a virtual environment manager that doesn't require modifying system-wide configuration files.
