Breadcrumb

The Ogongo UNAM Campus Indigenous Forest Parks Project, funded by the Welsh government in 2021 at a cost of N$5,2 million, is progressing well.

The project includes a tree planting programme with a focus on the uses of indigenous fruit trees within the ecosystem.

The Ogongo Campus pilot project targets planting about 500 indigenous trees within a 120-hectare park.

The project is part of the nine-year Phoenix Project, a collaboration between Cardiff University and the University of Namibia, supported by a Memorandum of Understanding between the entities.
