The Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism (MEFT) has condemned the burning of tyres at the Walvis Bay Landfill, saying such action poses serious health risks to people and animals and compromises air quality.
In close collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme, the Ministry of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism played a crucial role in facilitating the preparation and adoption of the national framework.
There is a need to develop a policy aimed at enhancing an equitable and sustainable biotrade sector in Namibia.
The establishment of such a policy will link Namibia's biodiversity product innovations to a global market while supporting local community development.
