Only a handful of people joined a protest against drugs and dealers in Walvis Bay, Erongo Region, despite the coastal town facing an uphill battle against drugs.

The Erongo Region remains an active hub of economic development as it houses key industries such as the fishing sector, mining, logistics and transport, as well as tourism.

The Minister of Environment, Forestry, and Tourism has urged farmers at Otjimboyo Conservancy in Erongo's Dâures Constituency to diversify production systems and adapt to climate change.

A programme aimed at equipping community members with firefighting skills will take place at Walvis Bay in the Erongo Region next week.

Deaf people in the Erongo Region have appealed to the government to accommodate them in the education, health, and employment sectors.

Members of the deaf community in the region marked this year's Deaf Awareness Month with a protest at Swakopmund.

The Erongo Region has inaugurated the first Anti-Corruption Stakeholders Forum aimed at fighting corruption.

The forum, chaired by Erongo Governor Neville Andre, is part of the National Anti-Corruption Strategy and Action Plan for 2021 to 2025.
