Dianah Mugalizi joining INC-4 on plastic pollution

Dianah Mugalizi is a dedicated climate advocate and leader from Kenya. She is seeking financial support to attend the INC-4 conference on plastic pollution in Ottawa, Canada.

As a grassroots plastics pollution campaigner, her focus is on advocating for a global plastics binding treaty.

INC-4 provides a unique opportunity to engage with like-minded individuals and initiate collective efforts towards climate resilience.

She anticipates acquiring mentorship that will enable her to inspire and motivate African youth, particularly in Kenya and her local community. By sharing experiences and learning from fellow environmental advocates, she seeks to enhance her capacity in environmental conservation.
