Get an impression of the beauty of this special region, the Ju’/hoansi Bushmen, and the children that need your support for their Village Schools.

The importance of education in the Nyae Nyae Conservancy, Namibia.

The Ju/’hoansi Bushmen call the Nyae Nyae region, N//oaq!a’ – a rocky place without mountains. It lies in the heart of the Western Kalahari, a landscape of extremes and distinct beauty, where wild game roam freely and the Ju/’oan people still live on a portion of their ancestral land. The magic of N//oaq!a’ is not in the beauty of the Kalahari, but the people: in their spirit, their poetry and culture.

Some frequently asked questions (FAQs) about Village Schools

What We Are Doing

Education
If it takes a village to raise a child, a school adds to a village

In addition to building and renovating school buildings, we are making sure that quality mother-tongue education is provided. That includes cultural activities

Community, Food & Transport
Food and nutrition are critical in motivating school attendance and the ability to learn

Every school will have a school garden that will not only feed the learners, but also teach them how to grow food. In addition, basic food items are provided to complement the meals

Capacity Building of teachers
Fancy buildings without great teachers will not result in quality education. Support for San teachers is vital for the progression of the schools. Teachers are assisted with their studies and mentored to become capable and creative teachers
