Co-ordinator of the Environmental Lawyers Collective for Africa

Nomasango Masiye-Moyo joined Natural Justice in 2023 as the co-ordinator of the Environmental Lawyers Collective for Africa (also known as ELCA). This is a collective of African Environmental and Public Interest lawyers who are passionate about championing environmental justice and protecting the rights of indigenous people on the Continent.

She graduated with an LLB from Nelson Mandela University in 2018 and soon after enrolled for an LLM in Commercial Law at the University of Witwatersrand, majoring in Human Rights in the Market Place and Mining Law.  This was indicative of Nomasango’s passion for human rights and interest in the dichotomy between commercial interests and disruption of human, socio-economic and environmental rights. After her LLM studies (2018- 2019) Nomasango worked as a legal intern at Mawere Sibanda and Associates until May of 2020. She then become an Academic Associate in the Department of Mercantile Law at the University of Pretoria in (2021) before being admitted as a Legal Practitioner of the High Court of Zimbabwe, in 2022.  During the same year Nomasango joined the Department of Mercantile Law as an Assistant Lecturer at the University of Pretoria teaching Business Law, and Competition Law. 

She is currently pursuing an LLD in Competition Law at the University of Pretoria focussing on the protection of vulnerable consumers from unfair and excessive prices for essential goods and services during crisis periods. In her other research she explores ways to foster competition whilst ensuring the protection of the environment, by using compliance with relevant environmental statutes as a key factor in the authorisations of mergers or exemptions.
