Mariam Keita is a trailblazer driven by a vision to uplift her community through sustainable practices and social empowerment. Facing the challenges of waste management and limited resources, Mariam founded an initiative that transforms waste into opportunity. She mobilizes local communities to participate in recycling and waste reduction efforts, creating jobs and promoting environmental awareness in the process. For Mariam, it’s about more than just cleaning the streets—it’s about instilling pride, empowering women and youth, and building a culture of sustainability. Her work is a testament to the resilience and innovation that can arise from local leadership, inspiring others in Conakry and beyond to see waste as a resource and every challenge as a chance for change.
