Umweltengagement gewürdigt

Windhoek (cev) • In Windhoek ist der Einsatz für Natur und Umwelt diverser Firmen, Lokalbehörden und Einzelpersonen anerkannt worden. Vor wenigen Tagen hatte der Environmental Investment Fund (EIF) entsprechende Preise in fünf Kategorien vergeben. In der Kategorie industrieller bzw. gewerblicher Aktivitäten (Environmental Excellence Among Industries) konnte sich die Ohorongo-Zementfabrik gegen vier Mitstreiter durchsetzen: „Die Konkurrenz war hart: Namdeb, Hendrik Ehlers & The Uyelele Solar Bottle Project, Wolwedans Collection und Northern Refuse Removals waren nominiert; Ohorongo hat den Preis erhalten und Wolwedans war zweiter“, heißt es in einer Erklärung des Zementwerks. Wie Ohorongo ferner mitteilte, gewannen die Macher des Ncumcara Community Forest in der Kategorie der Naturressourcen (Natural Resource Management & Utilisation), wo Okongo Community Forest den zweiten Platz belegte – Elephant Energy, Hendrik Ehlers & The Uyelele Solar Bottle Project, Northern Refuse Removals und Namibia Traditional Councillors Association waren nominiert. In der Kategorie bemerkenswerter Vordenkerrollen (Thought Leadership) gewann der Naturschützer John Kasaona den ersten Preis, die ehemalige Umwelt- und nun Vize-Premierministerin Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah belegte den zweiten Rang; zudem war Ben Amadhila als ehemaliger Vorsitzender des Parlamentsausschusses für Wirtschaft, natürliche Ressourcen und öffentliche Verwaltung nominiert. In der Kommunikations- und Bildungsrubrik (Environmental Education & Communication for Sustainability) gewann der Namib Desert Environment Education Trust, gefolgt von dem Cheetah Conservation Fund – weitere Nominierte waren die YouthinkGreen-Schüleraktivisten der DHPS, das Hendrik Ehlers & The Uyelele Solar Bottle Project, das Okakarara Waterberg Environmental Project und das Recycle Namibia Forum. In der Kategorie der Medien (Pioneering Journalists in the Field of Environmental Sustainability) ging der freischaffende und hauptsächlich für die Zeitung „The Namibian“ tätige Journalist Absalom Shigwedha als Gewinner hervor; Pearl Coetzee von der Presseagentur Nampa landete auf Platz zwei.
