Can you imagine a laptop bag or a travel bag made from from detergents sachets?
This video is trending on different platforms. I was tagged and I rushed to the comment section only to find negative vibes trying to quell the great vibes and innovation there off.
As we have agreed on previous posts, innovation do not have to be grand or shinny in order to be highlighted.
If this mother by making thes bags and selling them;
Educates her children-that is a generational investment.
Is able to provide food, shelter, clothing plus other wants, that is a secured livelihoods.
Is able to keep her neighbourhood clean that is transformative.
In its own small big way these innovation by
Adejoke Lasisi is contributing to SDGs such as life on land and life on water, sustainable production and consumption, decent work and economic growth, sustainable cities and communities,climate action among others.
If we had an Adejoke in every neighbourhood/township in Africa, the multiplier effect would be phenomenal.
And while I agree that maybe there is something that can be done to streamline the production process especially the shredding, the innovation as is, is:
Scalable 💯
Sustainability 💯
Environment friendly 💯
3Ps conscious 💯
3RS conscious 💯
ROI 💯
Also it is a good practice to involve children in doing work in family and activities as long as it doesn't infringe on their basic and fundamental rights. So no this picture doesn't depict child labour, this is how we do it here and we are happy.
This is change that we can believe in, and impact that we can rally behind.
