Namita Banka left behind a successful career in jewellery design to work on sanitation - a space often overlooked but deeply transformative. She saw what others didn’t - a path to dignity, education, and access to clean water.
Through her company, Banka BioLoo, Namita has brought bio-toilets and wastewater treatment to rural India, revolutionized sanitation on Indian Railways, and helped small businesses grow - while ensuring that girls stay in school.
Her work has already recycled over 1.5 billion litres of water - and she’s just getting started.
Because true change doesn’t just clean - it uplifts, empowers, and flows forward with every step.
