SAFCEI hybrid AGM - 27 August 2024

  • Published:

Join us for SAFCEI's hybrid Annual General Meeting (AGM) on 27 August 2024 from 5:00 pm. We will be sharing highlights and achievements from the past year.

We are excited to announce that this year’s AGM keynote speaker is Nonhle Mbuthuma, founder of the Amadiba Crisis Committee and this year's co-recipient of the Goldman Prize for the Africa Region. Nonhle will be with us in person for what will be a fascinating opportunity to hear about her activism and the challenges that they face on the Wild Coast.

Nonhle Mbuthuma is an activist and farmer who fights for land and environmental rights. In 2007, Nonhle founded the Amadiba Crisis Committee (ACC) to unite community members in five villages of the Amadiba region to collectively oppose destructive mining projects. She serves as a crucial link between the indigenous community and the ACC’s legal team, which has acted against onshore mining, offshore seismic exploration, and advocates for self-determination and sustainable development.
