Part 2 of video: I joined TEN Habitat in the middle of 2017 seeking to develop my idea which involved a recycling initiative within schools coupled with a T-shirt campaign to help catalyse environmental best practices; and received the tools, critical questioning and discussion needed to evolve and test this idea further into a business that can be scaled, while focusing more on a solution for the root problems.
