This week on the Impact Fashion Podcast, Chidubem chats with Nkwo Onwuka, founder of Nigeria based fashion brand, Nkwo, about her experience designing with waste. They talked about Nkwo's work to preserve dying artisanal crafts in Nigeria, developing a new textile, called Dakala, from waste and the potential of Nigeria's fashion industry (amongst other things).

During the conversation, Nkwo mentioned working with women in an IDP camp. The acronym, IDP means Internally Displaced Persons. The camp she has been working with is "currently home to over 1500 people who were displace from their villages in 2014 by Boko Haram and Fulani herdsmen".
