The past year was one of learning and adapting for NACSO and all its partners. Despite the negative impacts of Covid-19, conservation work in Namibia continued. Before 2021 came to an end, NACSO members together with the Ministry of Environment Forestry and Tourism, came together for a three-day workshop to share successes and challenges as well as plan and budget for this new year. Extensive work goes into ensuring that the wheels of the CBNRM program keep turning. Good collaboration, teamwork, and teambuilding are important contributors to this success.
