About N$500,000 was raised by the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust (NFCPT) towards assisting schools in the ||Kharas Region, in need of desks, chairs, cutlery, and stationery.

The donated materials were handed over to the regional education directorate at Keetmanshoop by the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust.

In 2012, the Namibia Fish Consumption Promotion Trust committed to raising funds annually to benefit selected schools in all regions.

The African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) has engaged stakeholders in the ||Kharas Region to assess government performance to enhance good governance and foster sustainable development.

Civil servants, representatives from corporate business and civil organisations, and traditional leaders attended the regional consultative engagement at Keetmanshoop.

APRM is an African self-assessment mechanism that reviews good performance and encourages the implementation of policies and practices of good political, economic, and corporate governance in Africa.
