Aeshnina Azzahra Arisandi

Aeshnina is a 15-year-old Indonesian environmental activist whose main concern is to stop the transport of rubbish from Europe to her home country and other countries in the global south. Especially in times of the pandemic, when plastic consumption and the associated littering of our environment are exploding, Nina never tires of starting media-effective campaigns over and over again. As a young environmental activist, Nina was invited to speak at the Plastic Health Summit in Theatre Amsterdam in 2021. She is advocating for a clean, safe, healthy and sustainable world, and fighting against illegal imports of plastic waste from industrialised countries to her native Indonesia.

One action Aeshnina would like everyone to take:

“Change your daily consumption lifestyle to reusables, refillable and refuse single-use plastic.”
