This is the second edition of the Drought Relief Bulletin, an initiative of the Namibian Chamber of Environment (NCE). The purpose of this Bulletin is to improve communications between and create synergy among institutions supporting or carrying out drought relief efforts in Namibia. It summarises research and reports on drought relief efforts in Namibia and other parts of the world to introduce new relief methods and elucidate lessons learned by practitioners. The Bulletin is produced regularly and each edition will focus on different aspects of drought relief. This Bulletin is distributed to relevant government departments and the corporate private sector. Both governmental and non-governmental drought relief efforts can benefit from greater communication and understanding of the objectives, mechanisms and focal areas of their respective efforts. Furthermore, the government has called on the private sector to contribute to drought relief during the particularly severe drought currently being experienced. The details provided here will therefore be of interest to private companies wanting to heed government’s call for support. Readers are encouraged to share this Bulletin with other institutions or interested parties, such that the Bulletin expands to include as many drought relief projects in Namibia as possible. Contributions to the Bulletin in the form of details about relief projects in Namibia or reports on previous drought relief efforts (or efforts from other parts of the world) can be sent to the Bulletin editor, Gail Potgieter at gailsfelines@gmail.com.
