Welcome to the Namib Desert Environmental Education Trust (NaDEET)

Visitors to the NaDEET Urban Sustainability Centre can now take part in the programmes that the Centre has to offer after it was officially opened by the Secretary-General Roderick April of the Namibian National Commission to UNESCO in Swakopmund. The opening event on the 22 October was attended by a multi-sectoral stakeholder audience who got impressions of what the centre has to offer to visitors. Read here for more information on the centre and programmes offered. 

On a quest to learn about NaDEET’s hands on ESD practices, a group of twelve Bachelor of Education students from the University of the Sacred Heart, Tokyo came to Namibia. The cultural exchange around ESD was inspiring for all. This visit was made a reality by professor Yoshi Nagata, one of the international jury members for the ESD Prize who organized for his students and colleagues.  Read more about their visit here.

World Cleanup Day is fast approaching and our new environmental education intern at NaDEET Centre Michael took on the task to address participants about the waste management. This will better prepare our participants and citizens to do their part in keeping the environment clean and safe.
