Namib Desert Environmental Education Trust (NaDEET)

Unverified non-profit organisation

The Namib Desert Environmental Education Trust (NaDEET) is a non-profit trust providing environmental education for Namibian children and educators, regardless of income, by addressing relevant environmental issues through hands-on, experimental learning. NaDEET’s emphasis is on creating learning opportunities that can be applied in everyday life. They believe that having school children live in a sustainable manner is much more valuable than just hearing about it in a classroom setting. The Centre is built in such a way that all ‘living’ activities, such as cooking, cleaning and giving shelter, are practiced using sustainable or alternative energy resources. For rural community members, NaDEET opens their eyes to energy efficient lifestyle and gives them the equipment needed to implement it.
