Speaking at the event, William warned that there must be ‘no interruption’ in collective efforts to halt the ‘terrifying’ loss of species and habitats across Africa.
Speaking tonight at the 11th annual awards ceremony, he reminded us of the “disproportionate losses and damage from climate change” facing the continent.
The royal family, who have been patrons of Tusk since 2005, said: ‘There must be no interruption in our collective efforts to reverse the terrifying loss of species and habitats we are all witnessing.’
On Monday evening, three individuals were rewarded for their conservation work by the charity, which has supported habitat protection and anti-poaching intervention in Africa for more than three decades.
Prince William presented the prizes on stage to winners Jealous Mpofu, Dr. Ekwoge Abwe and Fanny Minesi.
In his keynote speech, the Prince called the ceremony “a rare moment to reflect on the important achievements of our award winners and to recognize the challenges they face every day.”
Prince William told conservationists at the Savoy Hotel in London that the rangers celebrated with the award are “ecosystem guardians working on behalf of the global community.”

He said these individuals “bear the immense responsibility for managing these vast areas of land and water – areas that are vital to the future of life on Earth.”
The prince added that protecting these natural habitats in Africa “will put us on a path to achieving the global goal of protecting 30 percent of all land, oceans and inland waters by 2030.”
The future king helped launch the annual Tusk ceremony in 2013 to recognize the work of those trying to protect some of Africa’s most iconic animals and habitats.
As a royal patron, he has been a staunch supporter of the charity’s efforts for almost two decades.

The awards aim to highlight the stories of conservation leaders and wildlife rangers across the continent so that their work can be amplified.
Since the first event in 2013, the awards have now recognized 55 conservation leaders from 20 countries.
“It is evenings like these that provide the vital impetus to bring about positive change,” said William, adding: “Today’s winners now join an impressive alumni, formed by Africa’s most influential, passionate and committed conservationists.’
Before taking his place at the reception at The Savoy, the Prince took part in an upstairs reception where he spoke to the charity’s trustees and representatives, including Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood and Emma Weymouth, the Marchioness of Bath.
Wood, who attended with his wife Sally, said they discussed the life-size gorillas they painted for charity – which have raised more than £100,000 in sales – and the upcoming Stones tour for the band’s new album , Hackney Diamonds, with the Prince. .
During his keynote speech, William said the Tusk ceremony also serves as a reminder that “those living in Africa emit only a quarter of the emissions of the average global citizen.”
“Yet the African continent will suffer disproportionate losses and damage as a result of climate change.”
