Environmental clubs at nine schools and the University of Namibia have been given a total amount of N$ 500 000 by a climate change adaptation project in the Ministry of Environment and Tourism.<\/p>\n

The environmental protection initiatives were given N$50 000 each at a launch of the Youth Climate Change Music Festival last Friday.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the event, Environment and Tourism Minister Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, said it is through initiatives such as schools environmental clubs that awareness can be created in the youth to change their attitudes towards the environment and take an interest in the environment as a career.<\/p>\n

Nandi-Ndaitwah said as a signatory to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, Namibia has to fulfil obligations which include education, training and raising public awareness on matters related to climate change.<\/p>\n

“Article 6 of the Convention called on Parties to integrate climate change issues in relations to education and training and public awareness,” she said.<\/p>\n

At the same event, the Ministry of Environment and Tourism also gave 1 000 copies of the ‘Atlas of Namibia- A Portrait of the Land and Its People’ to the Ministry of Education.<\/p>\n

The atlas books will be distributed to libraries at schools and academic institutions.<\/p>\n

The Youth Climate Change Festival will be held on 10 June 2011 at Zoo Park Amphitheatre and is aimed at raising awareness on the effects of climate change.<\/p>\n

At the event, the youth will perform their own climate change related songs, poems and dramas in a competitive manner, as prizes will be given all categories.<\/p>\n

Beneficiaries of financial assistance of the Africa Adaptation Project- Namibia are Colombo Combined School, Cornelius Goreseb High School, Elakalalpwa Combined School, Linus Shashipapo Secondary School, Mubiza Primary School, Academia Secondary School, Gabriel Taapopi Secondary School, Katji-Na-Katji Secondary School, Hochland High School, and the Department of Biological Sciences of the University of Namibia.<\/p>\n
