Nurturing Our Planet While Ending Poverty with ZEINORIN ANGKANG
Episode 118
Monday, 22 April, 2024
Zeinorin Angkang is a 2022 VV Visionaries Fellowship alumna and founder of Hill Wild, an organization working with the Tangkhul Naga People in Northeast India to create a sustainable food supply and eradicate poverty. In this work, she also champions the voices of Indigenous Peoples and their farming knowledge that dates back thousands of years. She recently spoke to Vital Voices President & CEO Alyse Nelson on why she founded Hill Wild and how she grew the social enterprise to include more than 2,000 farmers, 80 percent of whom are women. Angkang was recently featured in Portraits of Progress: Women Powering the Global Goals, an interactive art exhibit that debuted at the United Nations Headquarters during Women's History Month. The exhibit featured 17 portraits of women leaders finding solutions to advance the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). If listening to Angkang's story on our podcast has inspired you to take action, please consider donating to Vital Voices to help us continue investing in, connecting with, and amplifying the work of women leaders who are solving the world's most significant problems.Visit Vital Voices online.Make a contribution to our work.
