In this update, Iynna provides an introduction to her planned Human Centered Design research approach.
Iynna believes that innovation and creativity are the solution to Cameroon's development challenges. Her goal as a social entrepreneur is to unlock the potential within local communities to create solutions for the lack of access to sanitation and clean water.
A global nomad, Iynna was born Cameroon and grew up there for 10 years before moving to France. She has studied, lived and worked in England, the United States, Canada, Russia and Senegal. She most recently received her Master’s degree from New York University in International Affairs with a focus on international development.
Our mission is to prevent waterborne disease among developing world families by increasing access to clean water and sanitation. We do this by building ventures with locally-fluent entrepreneurs to leverage existing technology, experience and ideas.
