Sustainability Champions Spotlight
Being a Sustainability Champion in government means actively promoting and implementing environmentally responsible policies, practices, and initiatives within public sector operations. Our champions:
- Lead by Example – Practicing sustainability in daily work, such as reducing waste, conserving energy, and prioritizing eco-friendly procurement.
- Drive Change – Advocating for sustainable policies in areas like infrastructure, procurement, transportation, and waste management.
- Encourage Collaboration – Working with colleagues, departments, and external stakeholders to create greener solutions.
- Educate & Inspire – Raising awareness about sustainability goals and encouraging government employees to adopt eco-friendly habits
Sustainability is a global priority that demands collective action and it takes individuals who are passionate about preserving the world to lead the charge for meaningful change. Within the Cayman Islands Civil Service, various individuals have emerged as champions of this worthy cause. One such individual is Morgan Golden-Ebanks.
A lover of animals and nature, Golden-Ebanks’ passion for environmental conservation began in an environmental studies class at the University College of the Cayman Islands (UCCI) where she learned about the impacts of palm oil. That experience was the catalyst for her work and subsequent career path.
From those early years, Golden-Ebanks became concerned about the planet and decided she wanted to make a difference in the world. This resolve propelled her to search for like-minded individuals in Cayman. The search led her to the Department of Environment (DoE) and the National Trust for the Cayman Islands (NTCI) where she volunteered. She also worked with the NTCI for a period of time. By working with these organisations, Golden-Ebanks learned about her Islands and its natural heritage, which caused her to place even greater value on the need to protect it.
