Tourism and Development

Tourism fair, sustainable development ... many formulas full of meaning to which the public is increasingly sensitive and witch are excessively used by marketers. How to recognize the sincerity and reality of the projects?
The consumer gets lost.

We are all affected by these themes but each of us have to be fair.
For example: what is the point of donating when at the market, we negotiate so hard the price of the craft that neither the seller nor the artisan will be able to live honorably?

The debate is wide, it is open and interesting. Namibian authorities are sensitive about this and they push investors and entrepreneurs to invest in development projects involving local communities. The Wilderness Lodge and Leading Lodge chains have established foundations organizing projects around the children, enabling them to discover their country and access to education.

Travelling through the country you will participate in the local economy and income support induced the development of regions visited. The intensity of the fallen and the perception that people have of tourism depends in part on the behavior of tourists.
Do not forget that these people have known of apartheid and therefore, in most cases, reserved towards foreigners, but if we give them the opportunity, we quickly realize that they are friendly and curious .

In this section, we list some projects that we have discovered, and that you could easily support by a grant or a visit.
