Sustainability Awards

The Impumelelo Innovations Award Trust is launching the 2010 SUSTAINABILITY AWARDS to coincide with its 10th anniversary celebrations. Having awarded 268 exceptional public service projects since 1999, the World Cup is the ideal platform to generate new thinking around sustainable development and poverty reduction.

2010 provides South Africans with the opportunity to change the way we live, produce, and consume. Climate change, global warming, carbon emissions, and sustainable development – are but a few of the buzz words of the 21st century. In the last two decades we have seen real environmental threats to the sustainability of the earth, threats that cause life on earth to be so much more unsustainable. The poor, especially, are the most vulnerable groups in this regard as they do not have the means to compensate for the consequences. Unless we take positive measures to change the way we live, we shall compromise the abilities of future generations to meet their needs.
