#810 Lennox Omondi on Sustainable Innovation for Menstrual Health: From Myanmar Activism to Kenyan Social Enterprise
In this compelling episode, we speak with Ray Oo, a Myanmar refugee and climate activist currently pursuing his MBA in Sustainability, and Lennox Omondi, founder and CEO of Ecobana Limited in Kenya. Their conversation explores how sustainable innovation can address critical social challenges, focusing on Ecobana's development of biodegradable sanitary napkins made from banana fibers. The discussion weaves together themes of youth leadership, environmental sustainability, and social impact, as Lennox shares how he's tackling period poverty in Kenya while creating an environmentally conscious solution. Ray, who serves as Myanmar's representative on the Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on Plastic Pollution, brings his unique perspective on climate activism and social change from the Global South, creating a rich dialogue about the intersection of sustainability, social justice, and entrepreneurship.
