During the 44th SADC Summit, President Emmerson Mnangagwa, newly appointed SADC Chairman, reaffirmed Zimbabwe’s dedication to sustainable development by hosting a tour of the Geo Pomona Waste Management Site for visiting Heads of State and dignitaries. This state-of-the-art facility, which embodies the country’s commitment to innovative waste management and renewable energy, was a key highlight of the summit, illustrating Zimbabwe’s leadership in green initiatives.
