Two South African women win the Goldman
Environmental Prize
Makoma Lekalakala and Liz McDaid led a legal battle
against two of the world’s most powerful men – their
deposed leader Jacob Zuma and the Russian president,
Vladimir Putin. They had been tipped off by the Russian
ecological group Ecodefense that there was a secret multibillion-dollar deal to buy nuclear
power stations from Russia. They knew the risks involved in confronting their president, the
electricity company and the interests of a foreign power, and were warned that they could face
violence. But both had fought against apartheid in the 80s, an experience that left them
relatively fearless. Finally, after a fve-year legal battle, the high court outlawed the project and
declared it unconstitutional: a landmark legal victory that protects South Africa from nuclear
expansion and production of radioactive waste.
