On Wednesday 31 October 2007, the Namibia Nature Foundation (NNF), the Southern African Institute for Environmental Assessment (SAIEA) and NEWS held a joint office-warming party to celebrate their new shared facilities. A representative of each of the partners said a few words, with NEWS Director, Helge Denker, pointing out that even though NEWS has the smallest offices, we are actually the most senior organisation on the premises, having been founded in 1966. He also urged everyone present, including the Honourable Minister of MET, Rev. Willem Konjore, to become a member of NEWS in order to strengthen our country-wide network of members and partners. The Honourable Minister gave the keynote address and officially opened the offices. Dr. Kalumbi Shangula, the Permanent Secretary of MET, was also present, as were numerous partners and friends of the three organisations. The generally very informal function was a big success, for us particularly in the celebration of the first dedicated offices of NEWS. |
