Publications, Library, Marketing and Publicity Desk

DRFN publicises its work through newspaper and magazine articles, fact sheets, pamphlets, books and peer-reviewed journals, all in the interest of getting information into the public eye and raising awareness of the opportunities that sustainability offers.

At the same time, involvement in projects with communities, schools, technical people and decision-makers create a focus for collaboration and sharing information. Our focus in raising awareness and providing information is always to integrate issues of environmental and economic sustainability with people’s livelihoods and the use and management of natural resources.

Libraries at the Windhoek office and at Gobabeb Centre house an extensive collection of resource material and information on natural resource management and sustainable development, emphasising Namibia and southern Africa, arid and semi-arid environments, and focusing on the Namib at the Gobabeb library.
