Namibia and Indonesia have reaffirmed their commitment to deepening cultural diplomacy and strengthening the bond between their people.

The commitment was made during the musical and cultural festival held in Windhoek under the theme "Unity in Diversity: Cultural Harmony of Indonesia and Namibia".

Namibia says it needs roughly US$15 billion to meet its climate goals, while Indonesia warns that today’s disasters are “not only natural” but increasingly driven by human actions. 

Indonesia has expressed interest in assisting the government of Namibia to maintain the Kalimbeza Rice Project in the Zambezi Region.

Recently, news circulated about the dire state of the Kalimbeza rice project, highlighting mismanagement as a contributing factor.

Indonesia celebrated its 79th anniversary of independence.

At the celebration, the country reaffirmed its bond with Namibia and their people.

The Embassy of the Republic of Indonesia in Windhoek is set to host a premier cultural event titled "Harmony of Nusantara: The Colours of Indonesia."

Namibia and Indonesia are in the process of mapping out and exploring new areas of cooperation.

This is in line with Indonesia's economic cooperation with Africa, aimed at transforming and establishing relations into economic cooperation for mutual benefits between the two countries.

The Indonesian government is urging Namibians to apply for scholarships through its scholarship programme. 

Namibians applying for these scholarships are eligible to enroll at 31 universities in Indonesia. 

Namibians graduated in various fields from Indonesian universities in 2019.
