Who is NaDEET?

Registered in Namibia as a non-profit trust, NaDEET is a vibrant environmental education organisation. At the core of NaDEET’s programmes is our environmental education centre located on the NamibRand Nature Reserve. Children and adult participants learn first-hand about sustainable living, biodiversity and the balance between humans and the environment. Our environmental literacy and outreach programmes complement the Centre’s activities and expand its reach nationwide. Since 2019, NaDEET has opened a day visitor's centre in Swakopmund, the NaDEET Urban Sustainability Centre.

What is sustainable living?

Sustainable living enables us to:

balance the social, political and environmental aspects of our existence
improve our quality of life
share responsibility in managing the Earth’s resources
save money!

"Everything was so good and now I know how to save water" NaDEET learners

Workshop Series Participants Give Input

In preparation for our new “Teach for ESD” Teacher Development Programme, we invited stakeholders from diverse backgrounds to give us their input through a series of three workshops. Teachers, education advisors and academics, and fellow non-governmental environmental educators advised us on various aspects of the project design, material needs and monitoring and evaluation. The project will commence in January 2021.
