Leadership in Sustainability Awards Dinner Puts Spotlight on Eco Equity

Awards Dinner Keynote Speaker Jakada Imani

By Jan Kahdeman

On Saturday night, Nov. 5, at the Mary Agatha Furth Center in Windsor, Ella Baker Center for Human Rights executive director Jakada Imani stood at the intersection of social equity for youth and green job opportunities. As keynote speaker for the third annual Leadership in Sustainability Awards dinner, he told award winners and their friends and guests “we were born for this moment, when what we do matters so much.”

Hosted by The Leadership Institute for Ecology and the Economy, the awards dinner was held to honor Sonoma County individuals, organizations, and corporations who exemplify the Institute’s focus on the three E’s of a healthy economy, a well-stewarded environment and social equity--necessary ingredients, according to the non-profit, for a sustainable future.
