Revised Environmental Strategy Launched

Ministry of Environment, Wildlife and Tourism's Department of Environmental Affairs launched the revised National Environmental Education Strategy and Action Plan (NEESAP) at the National Botanical Garden in Gaborone last Friday.

Ministry's deputy permanent secretary Mpho Mmopi explained that NEESAP was established under the Natural Resources Conservation Strategy passed by Parliament in 1990.

The review began in 2006 ending 2007 and it involved consultations with environmental practitioners and customers," Mmopi said.
