The Right to a Sustainable Environment and Clean Water – Dr Musonda Mumba is a captivating original acrylic painting by Finnish artist Minna Pietarinen, created in 2024 for the internationally touring I Was Born a Girl exhibition. This artwork honours Dr Musonda Mumba, a globally respected Zambian environmental scientist and the Secretary General of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands.

 

Her lifelong work champions the protection of fragile ecosystems, the defence of clean water sources, and the recognition that environmental rights are human rights.

It speaks to the urgent need to safeguard the natural world — not only for present generations, but as an inheritance for those yet to come.
