Aussie STEM Stars is an inspiring children's series that celebrates Australia's world-leading experts in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. Inspired by what she observed growing up in Mumbai, that one person's trash is another person's treasure, Veena has dedicated her life to revolutionising the processes to transform waste into amazing products in your suburb- micro-recycling. She's head of the Centre for Sustainable Materials Research and technology (UNSW) and 2022 NSW Australian of the Year. A great role model for girls, in particular! |
