Keeping Plastics in the
Economy and out of the
Environment
Meha Lahiri’s entrepreneurial journey at Recity has not only been about
solving India’s systemic plastic waste challenges in 12+ cities through circular
economy solutions, but also nurturing a gender-neutral and resilient culture
towards building a healthy workforce. Recity has also tirelessly been working
towards professionalization of formal and informal waste workers.
Since inception, over 69% women waste workers have been impacted with
the help of health modules and medical camps. Coupled with skill-based and
entrepreneurship trainings, social recognition and government authorized
benefits such as e-shram and occupational IDs.
Recity has been championing
impactful outcomes to ensure
standardization of green supply chains
and robust tech-enabled solutions.
