Feminist Fridays #33: Women Leadership in Sustainability

Many women are working in the sustainability space, but do these women leaders lack a strong support system and community? We speak to two women in the sustainability industry, EcoKnights' President Yasmin Rasyid, and The Body Shop's Managing Director Datin Mina Cheah-Foong, about why it's important to empower women as leaders, and to discuss the immense social and economic impacts of closing the gender gap.
