At the third International Conference on ESG and Sustainable Development of Africa, he was awarded the Green Societal Impact and Sustainability Ambassadorial Award and the ICESDA Green Capital Partnership Award.\n\nThe conference, themed “The Africa We Want: Driving Transformational Inclusive Green Growth Through ESG and Digitalisation,” brought together stakeholders to discuss the integration of ESG principles and digital technologies to support Africa’s development. It emphasized inclusive green growth and the necessity for collaboration among policymakers, businesses, and civil society organizations to achieve sustainable growth while protecting the environment.\n\nAnnoh-Dompreh's efforts to bring community-level environmental issues to Parliament and advocate for legislative action on sustainability were recognized. His work was particularly appreciated during times when such concerns were often overlooked politically. The Green Societal Impact and Sustainability Ambassadorial Award celebrated his contributions to promoting environmental issues via Parliament. Additionally, the ICESDA Green Capital Partnership Award highlighted the role of lawmakers in linking local environmental challenges to national policymaking.\n\nPresenters at the conference stressed the critical importance of integrating environmental evidence into legislative debates and decision-making processes. The event served as a platform for discussing how ESG principles and digital innovations could facilitate Africa's sustainable development journey.",
