Our outreach programs are designed to spark curiosity and bridge the gap between science and society. We bring geoscience into schools and communities across Namibia, using interactive sessions, demonstrations, and hands-on activities to make complex concepts simple, fun, and engaging.
Through initiatives like our Geosciences Information for Teachers (GIFT) workshops and school visits, we empower both educators and learners to see the relevance of earth science in everyday life. From understanding local geology to exploring environmental issues, we aim to inspire a new generation of scientists starting in the classroom and reaching far beyond it.
These outreach efforts don’t just create awareness they build foundations. By supporting teachers with up-to-date content and engaging learners early, we’re cultivating a future where young people see themselves as active contributors to science, sustainability, and national development.

Our initiatives are open to students, early-career professionals, educators, and young scientists with an interest in geoscience and earth science careers. Whether you are still studying or starting your professional journey, there is a program designed to support your growth.
We offer a range of programs including scientific writing workshops, outreach initiatives for schools and communities, skills training, and career-focused seminars. Each program is designed to combine learning with hands-on experience and real-world application.
Our programs focus on turning scientific knowledge into practical impact. We help young scientists and learners apply what they study in classrooms, communities, and real-world field settings. The goal is to build skills that matter, support sustainable development, and address Namibia’s environmental and societal challenges.
You can get involved by joining a training program, attending a seminar, volunteering in outreach activities, or collaborating on projects. Our programs are designed to be accessible entry points for anyone looking to grow, contribute, and make a meaningful impact through science.
We design programs that move beyond theory, equipping young scientists, learners, and early-career professionals with practical skills to apply science in classrooms, communities, and the field, while contributing to sustainable development in Namibia.
