Launch of ‘Ubuntu: South Africa’s search for a sustainable future’

CPSL South Africa, in association with the Forum for the Future’s Green Futures publication and the British High Commission, will on the 19th November launch Ubuntu: South Africa’s search for a sustainable future.

Ubuntu is a once-off supplement to the bi-monthly “Green Futures”, the UK’s leading corporate sustainability magazine. It will be distributed internationally and through the Financial Mail’s 20th November issue  in South Africa. It looks at the political and economic hurdles South Africa faces as we square up to the accelerating impacts of climate change and the challenges of energy supply, water scarcity, food security, housing, transport and the 2010 World Cup.

Leading South African sustainability experts have been commissioned to write about these topics and the result reflects top-level analysis and opinion. In addition to reflecting on the challenges the country faces, pioneering examples of emerging sustainability practices in South Africa are showcased.

Ubuntu is edited in South Africa by Monica Graaff, the 2008 Environmental Journalist of the Year and former editor of the award-winning sustainable business magazine, Mind Shift.
