The University of Namibia is making strides in strengthening its position as a hub for academic excellence and research innovation in Southern Africa.

Namibia has raised over N$1.7 million for its national pavilion for the upcoming 29th Conference of the Parties (COP29) to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

Over 30 houses belonging to Shack Dwellers Federation members in Swakopmund's Mondesa suburb have been electrified with solar energy.

Namibia's revised commitment to addressing climate change through mitigation and adaptation requires about N$270 billion to be executed by 2030.

This information was disclosed during the Environmental Investment Fund stakeholders' conference held in Windhoek.
