We are proud to begin our Hear the Leaders series, showcasing people making a positive impact on the world, with a woman who was always in a league of her own, and who spearheaded environmental activism long before it was a mainstream concern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our first guest, Jeunesse Park<\/a>, is the founder of one of Africa\u2019s foundational non-profit organizations, Food and Trees for Africa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Her story is one of fearless perseverance and the audacity to take full advantage of the political opportunities that presented themselves to her. Her passion and resolve to change the status quo of carbon waste in her country began in 1989, and her agility and determination allowed her to do the impossible and influence environmental policies that would positively affect the future and the people of Africa and the world at large.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our very own Josh Klawansky<\/a> sat down with Jeunesse for her story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
