This #WorldEnvironmentDay, I'm delighted to be talking with Rohan Neel Shah, a 17-year-old 11th-grade student based in Nairobi, Kenya. Growing up in a country where nature, wildlife, and the outdoors are part of everyday life has deeply influenced his worldview. Since the age of two, his parents have taken him to Kenya’s national parks, instilling in him a profound love and passion for nature and conservation. We talk through his upbringing, love for photography, Jeffrey Wu's mentorship, and the sort of values that drive his craft. We also dive into Plastiki Rafiki, a non-profit student-led club at the International School of Kenya that is turning plastics into a resource while providing livelihoods for local people through creative manufacturing and product design. Enjoy and be inspired to take action.💚🎙️
