Flipflopi Draws Large Crowds in 2019 at UNEA-4
Following our expedition from Lamu to Zanzibar in early 2019, the Flipflopi made a different expedition – this time on land, on the back of a lorry. The destination? The United Nations in Nairobi, where the fourth session of the UN Environment Assembly was taking place from 11th to 15th March 2019.
Under the theme ‘Innovative Solutions for Environmental Challenges and Sustainable Consumption and Production,’ this assembly positioned Flipflopi in front of dignitaries, private sector representatives, and media correspondents - a colourful and immediate example of what is possible when you think about plastic as re-usable; part of a circular rather than a linear economy.
