On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate the incredible women who are driving change around the world, especially those within the African Circular Business Alliance (ACBA). Today, we shine a spotlight on Nair de Sousa, ACBA’s co-founder and Energy Sustainability Director.
Nair’s journey is an inspiration. A Geoscientist and Energy Consultant, she brings a wealth of experience and a burning passion for building a sustainable future for Africa. Her leadership at ACBA focuses on implementing low-carbon technologies across various sectors, a crucial step in the fight against the climate crisis.
Nair’s expertise goes beyond technical know-how. Her diverse background as a geoscientist, engineer, and policy analyst allows her to seamlessly integrate knowledge and create innovative solutions. From her previous work in shaping carbon capture and storage policies to her current focus on supporting businesses and governments in achieving net-zero goals, Nair demonstrates a commitment to both global best practices and the unique context of African nations.
But Nair is not alone. ACBA is a testament to the power of women driving the circular economy revolution in Africa. ACBA has a team of talented and brilliant women who are building innovative frameworks to empower businesses, communities, and governments. Their work is critical in improving climate action plans, circular economy principles, and a sustainable future for people and planet.
Today, we celebrate Nair de Sousa and all the women at ACBA, as well as every woman around the world who is working towards a more sustainable future. Together, we can build a better tomorrow, one circular solution at a time!
