Develop a tourist information center and tour guide service at Aus in southern Namibia. The center and guide service will attract tourists to Aus, raise awareness among visitors (international and local) of the Succulent Karoo, the Namib Desert’s wild horses, and Aus’ culture and history, create employment opportunities for Aus’ young people, and generate income which can be used for local conservation initiatives and community development.

Strategic Direction: 2 Engage key industrial sectors in meeting conservation objectives identified by SKEP
