Zaqiya, Founder & CEO

Zaqiya Cajee is the 17 year old behind SwopItUp. Believing that if you want to prevent climate change, you have to do your part too, she has driven the project forward with a supportive team behind her.

​

Zaqiya's vision is for SwopItUp to run in all schools in the UK, and for it to reach the farthest points of the globe! 

​

Zaqiya happily gives public talks & interviews, and sits on eco panels any chance she gets.
