Wildlands recognised at iLembe District SEEP & ECO-Schools Awards

Wildlands recognised at iLembe District SEEP & ECO-Schools Awards

Date: 2016-02-19
A leading environmental non-profit organisation, Wildlands, received three special awards for its outstanding community work in the green-jobs sector at the iLembe District SEEP & ECO-Schools Awards for 2015, held in KwaDukuza recently.

The iLembe District Economic Development, Tourism and Environmental Affairs (EDTEA) started the School Environmental Education Programme (SEEP), with a primary purpose to instill a culture of conserving the environment in youngsters.

Wildlands' David Moldenhauer was honoured for his role in the Youth Environmental Services (YES) programme - a partnership between the Department of Environmental Affairs and Wildlands, which currently boasts about 200 school leavers who work with communities in promoting environmental conservation.

David Moldenhauer said it was wonderful that communities, Wildlands and stakeholders such as iLembe EDTEA and the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) were able to work together in a way that truly made a difference. He added that, "With a shared vision and combined commitment it is clear that great potential awaits those willing to take responsibility for their futures."

Moldenhauer also thanked his team on the ground who worked hard to achieve the results that they were recognized for. "I would also like to thank Sandile Mathenjwa who received this award on my behalf, as I share this recognition with him," he said.

Tongaat based Ubuntu Earth Ambassador, Thinta Khumalo, received an award for Wildlands' Recycling and Trees for Life projects which have made a difference to the lives of his fellow Ndwedwe community members.

Wildlands was also recognized for assisting Ezemvelo KZN Wildlife with the 2015 Coastal Clean-up (19 September 2015). The Wildlands' team of volunteers cleaned the beaches adjacent to Beachwood Nature Reserve in Durban. International Clean-Up Day occurs around the world in an attempt to clean up the beautiful coastlines and create awareness about the health of our oceans.

These awards are indicative of the organisations' commitment to building resilient communities and a sustainable future for all.
