Save the Rhinos Education Awards

Next to fundraising, education was an important target of the Save the Rhinos Campaign. Therefore, Education Awards were handed out to participants that organised the most original or innovative education programme or activity for the Save the Rhinos Campaign. The Education Awards were available in two categories: rhino-holding institutions and non-rhino holding institutions. In each category, the Rhino Campaign Core Group selected a winner and runner-up from the many applications. The winners and runners-up received a rhino artwork (donated by Save the Rhino International) and colour certificate.

Education Award - non-rhino holding institutions
WINNER: Landau Zoo
For organising a very extensive campaign programme, including a calendar with activities throughout the "Rhino year", that received lots of media attention (22 press articles on rhinos).

RUNNER-UP: Amiens Zoo
For providing a huge amount of information to zoo visitors through various activities and campaign information displays.

Education Award - rhino-holding institutions
WINNER: Dvur-Kralove Zoo
For organising various activities aiming at children from schools (various levels) and involving many people from outside of the zoos. The innovative programme makes clear that education is not an idea of money but of ideas.

RUNNER-UP: Chester Zoo
For organising a visit by a rhino conservation field worker from Chyulu Hills in Kenya to Chester Zoo, thereby bringing the public in contact with rhino conservation (and vice-versa bringing a field worker in close contact with the EAZA Rhino Campaign).


A Special Award, consisting of a carved wooden rhino donated by EAZA corporate member HMJ Design, was handed out to Zoo de la Boissière du Doré (see picture).

The Save the Rhinos Core Group decided to hand out this award in recognition of the almost 100% input of zoo staff (from director to restaurant manager and keepers) in the campaign.
