Dow’s Africa Sustainability and Advocacy Manager, Adwoa Coleman, is joined by two trailblazing CEOs - Vivien Luk, Executive Director of non-profit organization WORK, and Cordie Aziz-Nash founder of Environment 360, who together share their expertise on the changes needed to transform the informal waste sector on the continent, and transform the lives of waste pickers through meaningful work that keeps plastic out of the environment and in a closed-loop for a more sustainable future.
