Urban agriculture survey slated for the capital

Collaboration between UNAM & CoW
The City of Windhoek’s Department of Economic Development and Community Services, in collaboration with the University of Namibia, Centre of Research Services, will be conducting an Urban Agriculture Survey within the boundaries of Windhoek.
The survey will be conducted in March 2023, with a focus on backyard gardeners, residents, regional councillors, farmers and other relevant stakeholders.
This assessment will guide the Council in supporting and enabling sustainable urban agricultural activities. This is in order to improve urban agriculture in Windhoek through the adoption and implementation of interventions that will improve urban agriculture processes. The above is in line with the Council's overall goal of improving the livelihoods of its residents.
In light of the above, the residents, regional councillors and relevant stakeholders are urged to provide their support and cooperation in this very important survey when approached. Enumerators will be in the field collecting data; they will be identifiable by blue t-shirts and hats with City of Windhoek and University of Namibia logos and name tags.
Should you be unable to identify an enumerator by the above criteria, stakeholders are encouraged to contact Dr Kletus Likuwa at 081 838 9293, or Ms Ndilimeke Shityeni at 081 269 0143 for verification purposes.
The public’s cooperation in completing this survey will be highly appreciated.
