from The Eco Sheroes Podcast · host Pallavi Santhapuram

Our guest, Marita, grew up in Dubai and has seen the city evolve. In her current role as Executive Director Middle East at Surge, a water non-profit organization, she is able to fulfill her desire to help fellow human beings through her volunteer work with them. Surge’s mission is to end the cycle of poverty by bringing safe water, sanitation, hygiene, and menstrual health solutions to those most in need. The Dubai chapter has grown steadily in the last ten years since it was established in 2013. Surge’s wider mission is to bring awareness to water conservation. As a budding environmental activist, scuba diver, and novice beekeeper, Marita spends much of her time learning about various issues, including the mainstream education system, sustainable agriculture, and plastic pollution and their terrible side effects on the planet and our health. She volunteers with various local organizations, taught the Eco Club at her children’s school, and is generally up for anything that brings attention to these very important subjects. Being a mother of two young girls, she is passionate about teaching children about the connectedness of everything in nature and how our ecosystem works. Personally, I loved this conversation so much! Marita explains sustainable living from a scientific, spiritual, and practical perspective by nurturing and rekindling our love of all living beings. Marita believes that together we will change the world. Toward the end, she also describes her experience of living in the most sustainable city of Dubai, which is called "Sustainable city" :) Do listen to the end, and if you have anything to add or any comments, write to me at the email address below.
