The Eco-Logic Awards have officially unveiled this year’s finalists—a celebration of some of South Africa’s most innovative and impactful eco-champions!
South Africa (29 August 2024) — The Eco-Logic Awards have officially announced their finalists—a celebration of some of South Africa’s most innovative and impactful eco-champions.
The awards, now in their 13th year, shine the spotlight on individuals, organisations, products and services that are pioneering eco-conscious solutions and actions across South Africa. Despite contributing to different niches—from eco-fashion, to waste innovation and those restoring and protecting our natural treasures—all are helping pave a greener path to a more sustainable future for our country.
Entries opened up in April, where submissions across 12 categories were evaluated by a panel of independent and environmentally knowledgeable executives from different backgrounds.
“While many of the entries were impressive, what ultimately led us to deciding on the finalists was decided by how well they demonstrated and reflected what we call Eco-Logical Intelligence,” shared David Parry-Davies, the editor of Enviropaedia and the Eco-Logic awards founder.
The awards will presented on 30 October at the Two Oceans Aquarium and are set to be hosted by none other than the comedian who keeps South Africa giggling, Themba Robin.
