Water Projects

PROMOTER: Namibia Water Corporation

Water scarcity remains one of the most pressing environmental issues of the century. The lack of fresh water resources to meet consumption demand affects every continent. Namibia is a semi-arid country, and the rainfall patterns have mostly been erratic. Projects to the value of N$ 3,3 billion are earmarked to address these deepened concerns. These include bulk water projects to the tune of N$ 3,1 billion, reclamation projects to the value of N$450 million and rural water projects amounting to N$ 1,5 billion respectively. In addition, grants have been secured to aid cross-cutting projects in capacity development through training.
