We are participating at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP29) in Baku, Azerbaijan where the company is seeking to build partnerships and enhance contribution to climate change mitigation.
Our Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Dr Dilesh Nguwaya, who is attending COP29, said the company wants to strengthen its position as a leader in sustainable waste management.
Dr Nguwaya said: “The company is committed to sustainable development and will gain from deliberations at COP29.
“We are here to attend informative sessions, learn from global experts and share our experiences in waste-to-energy strategies. As a regional pioneer, we are eager to share our knowledge and explore opportunities to expand such projects not only within Zimbabwe but across the African continent.”
Mr Nguwaya highlighted the importance of securing climate finance.
“We will be engaging in side meetings with potential climate change financiers to discuss investment opportunities that will enable us to scale up our operations and make a greater impact,” he said.
We have transformed the former Pomona dumpsite, a notorious eyesore in Harare, into a multi-purpose environmentally friendly facility, leveraging innovative technologies and best practices from local and international experts.
Presently, we are working on spreading our operations into other countries in Southern Africa after the region’s Heads of State and Government toured the facility when Zimbabwe hosted the SADC Summit in August this year.
