EDUCATION

Education is amongst the most powerful tools to shape the future of humanity and the planet. Knowledge and learning are key to address the conservation challenges of today.

 

At TOSCO, we believe that a deeper understanding of nature and its importance cultivates the respect and appreciation with which people will look after it. This involves tourism business leaders, tour guides and travellers as well as community members, rangers and the Namibian youth. Our Education projects focus on raising awareness on responsible travel, as well as on capacity development for doing conservation work.
