Ranitya has long standing experience and achievements in advocating environmental causes, which has been taking her traveling all around the world. The most significant one was the move to campaign “stop using plastic bag” in ASEAN countries, engaging the region’s youth to campaign about the issue. These have attracted people positively responding, and bought into the cause, as well as recognized by all stakeholders, resulting in Rani’s various awards and commendations.

YSEALI, as a platform, we observe, has been really successfully in engaging the participants and the alumnus, within one particular country, or even between countries, to make collaborative actions in creating change. Thus, hope lays from us all to USA government, that this leadership network tool can be continued for long run, so step by step, our collaboration as alumnus will be continued in a sustainable way.
