As part of Phase 1, a workshop was held in Lüderitz where local participants learned new art and storytelling techniques. The sessions combined creativity with environmental themes, giving people the tools to express their connection to the ocean through painting, drawing, and narrative. This hands-on training helped build confidence, encouraged self-expression, and strengthened the community voices at the heart of Waves of Change.
This photo is part of the Waves of Change initiative, a community-based art and ocean literacy project along Namibia’s coast. The project uses creativity and storytelling to inspire young people, connect communities to the sea, and share their voices with decision-makers. Supported by local partners and the NIMPA+ project, Waves of Change empowers champions of ocean conservation through murals, workshops, and education activities.
