Welcome to the Namib Desert Environmental Education Trust (NaDEET)

Namibian summer is here and finally after a long drought we have had approximately 50 mm of rain so far. This makes it the perfect time to plant the Camel-thorn saplings that we have been growing throughout this past year in our tree nursery. With the help of two university students, our kitchen, garden and maintenance team have planted over 200 trees over the holidays.

As the year reaches the end, we are glad that our three student-interns could complete their research projects with us even through the most difficult times. Check out the latest additions to our research section. 

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.
