NPH and MEN Team in action |
As part of Springer Nature's annual Sustainable Development Goals Impact Festival, Namibia Publishing House and Macmillan Education Namibia Team have come together to participate in an SDG-themed clean-up event at the Auasblick Mountain.
Armed with rubber gloves, collecting sticks and refuse bags, our team of 11 spent the Friday morning, 27 September, scouring the mountain, collecting all the rubbish we could find, often at the cost of personal injury. 😬😏😣
Fearless against the invader bush, defying thorns and sneaky branches, and motivated by our very own SDG Games Mascot, the team competed with each other on who can collect the most rubbish, collectively filling 30 refuse bags.

We proudly delivered the load at the Kleine Kuppe Refuse Site for further processing, hoping we had made a visible impact and that the Auasblick Mountain will stay clean for some time.
