Prince William Visits South African President Ahead of Earthshot Prize Ceremony Prince William visited South African President on Tuesday after joining conservationists and rangers at Table Mountain National Park. His trip, part of a multi-day visit, underscores the UK’s strong ties with South Africa, according to the South African presidency. The Prince is in South Africa for the Earthshot Prize awards ceremony, taking place on Wednesday. Launched four years ago, the prize aims to recognize innovative solutions to climate and environmental challenges, with each winner receiving $1.3 million. This year’s finalists include the Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance, focused on forest protection, and the Alton Dala Conservation Initiative, which helped save the Saiga Antelope from extinction. The Earthshot Prize ceremony is being held in Africa for the first time, during William’s first visit to the continent since 2018. He will also attend a wildlife summit and participate in climate-related events throughout his trip.
