Faith Chebiwott Murei

Faith Murei is a freshman from Kenya currently exploring majors in economics and life science communications. She is inspired by contemporary issues in waste management in Nairobi and other parts of Kenya, hoping to work towards financial incentivization for a rework and closer examination of how the Kenyan government and citizens approach dumps and the environment as a whole. At UW–Madison, Murei is a member of the Women in Science and Education Research and Interfaith organizations while also exploring Women Economics, as she finds working with other women in science as a source of personal support. After UW–Madison, Murei hopes to return to Kenya with a clear understanding of how to start to deal with waste management issues from an economic and communications perspective in the public sector.
