ESD Toolkit Couriered to Teachers

At the core of the Teach for ESD programme are our 240 teachers who we cannot yet meet in the training workshop due to the Covid-19 restrictions. We have adapted the programme to enable our participants to get started by sending them some of the programme materials. The team at the Urban Centre has been busy with packing and posting materials to different parts of the country.

NaDEET Centre Re-open!

NaDEET Centre is buzzing with life again with our first group of participants for 2021!  Fifteen learners from the Waldorf School Windhoek arrived on Monday evening after briefly getting stuck in a washed out road due to the recent heavy rains. The learners have been waiting to come to NaDEET since April 2020 when their trip was postponed due to COVID-19.  We look forward to welcoming more groups for our programmes this year.
