NNF ANNUAL REPORT | 41
Publication - Conservation and the Environment in Namibia In 2015, the Namibia Nature Foundation (NNF) was involved in a number of prestigious publications that were of diverse focus, from conservation and the environment, to fisheries management and birds. The NNF collaborated with Nedbank to have a special edition of Conservation and the Environment of Namibia, the Go Green Fund which assists with biodiversity and funding for a wide variety of projects. Over the years, the Conservation and the Environment in Namibia magazine has shared many success stories of projects supported by the Go Green Fund with the Namibian public. The aim of this magazine is to familiarise the public with environmental issues, trends as well as the successes and challenges of practical conservation in Namibia.
The Go Green Fund has disbursed more than N$5 million to a host of conservation projects and initiatives.
Nedbank Namibia and the NNF initiated the Go Green Fund in 2001, with the aim to support individuals and organisations working towards a more sustainable future, covering a wide range of conservation activities. In recognition of the importance of the GoGreen fund and after 14 years in operation having disbursed over N$5 million, a special edition of Conservation and the Environment in Namibia was commissioned. This highlights the contribution of the GoGreen fund to conservation in Namibia, which has provided funding for a wide variety of innovative projects and environmental protection efforts, focussing on climate change, biodiversity, freshwater and coastal/marine programmes.
