With a total Financial Contribution of 10 million Euros provided by the German government through KfW, the Programme participates in the enlargement of the Department of Wildlife Management and Ecotourism (DWME) at UNAM Campus Katima Mulilo under the Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources (FANR). This shall serve to extend the campus' physical and educational capacities to provide for expertise in the management of natural resources and ecotourism in the country and as well as in the region. As a result, the university shall contribute to Namibia's rural economic development by using the natural resources -for the tourism sector and other economic purposes- in a sustainable way and conserving the variety of the specific flora and fauna in the region.

After having won the architectural design competition, the Consortium led by PEM CONSULT has been awarded with the project implementation. This comprises two components belonging to one consistent concept as follows:

• Component 1: design and construction of the physical enlargement of the Katima Mulilo Campus and provision of equipment
• Component 2: consultancy and assistance for the development and implementation of related study programmes on the BSc, MSc and PhD level and for the enhancement of the Campus' management, marketing and stakeholder management capacities.

The activities carried out by the Consortium aim to achieve the following outputs
