Savory Center for Holistic Management:

Savory Given Major Environmental Award

On May 30, Allan Savory was presented one of Australia’s most prestigious 
environmental awards, the International Banksia Award. The Banksia Environmental 
Foundation gives the award each year to "individuals who have made, or are 
making, a significant contribution for the betterment of our environment on a 
global level." Past winners include Rachel Carson, Sir David Attenborough and Dr. 
David Suzuki, among others. 

The award was sponsored by DuPont and presented by its Vice President of 
Safety, Health and Environment, Paul Tebo. Dr. Tebo is the driving force behind 
efforts to steer DuPont’s global operations toward zero injuries, illnesses, 
incidents, wastes and emissions. And he is eager to follow up with the Savory 
Center to learn more about Holistic Management and how it could benefit this 
initiative.

The Banksia Foundation’s Board selects the winner each year from a pool of 
nominees whose activities they have followed for several years. Their reasons 
for selecting Allan this year:

Allan Savory has developed what is widely believed to be an entirely new 
decision-making framework through which all people, regardless of their location, 
industry or circumstances, can make decisions that are simultaneously 
environmentally, socially and financially sound in both the short and long 
term--Holistic Management. In short, Holistic Management appears to be a way of putting 
people back in control of their destinies and restoring a sense of direction in 
tough times. Many thousands of families and businesses around the world are 
now successfully using the new framework to radically improve the quality of 
their lives while simultaneously regenerating the resource base that sustains 
them.
