    About our guest
    Dr Lata Kamal Ghanshamnani is a practising opthalmologist and eye surgeon with more than 2 decades of experience. Over the years, she became concerned about the amount of waste generated at home, work and her city - Thane and how it was not managed effectively, leading to piling unsanitary landfills. Thus she co-founded RNisarg Foundation with fellow medical practitioners who resonated with her cause. She has been actively involved with environmental awareness and community engagement. She is a recipient of multiple prestigious awards and fellowships including Woman of Substance Award from Know your Thane, Covid warrior award, Swachhta Saarthi fellowship under Wealth to Waste initiative and is a Women4Climate Mumbai 2021 cohort member.
