SHARE THIS

In the study, UJAMS Waste Water Treatment Plant (UWWTP) served as a case study to investigate governance and policy analysis in relation to water security in the city of Windhoek. The study revealed that there are different actors that were involved in discussion and decision making to address the issue of water supply to industries, pollution from industrial effluent and the need to find diverse alternatives to the water insecurity problem that ultimately led to establishment and operation of the (UWWTP) Analysis of Water Management Plan for City of Windhoek 2017 and Transformational Strategic Plan (2017-2022) for City of Windhoek policies revealed that despite being developed recently after the Namibia Climate Change Policy, Strategy and Action Plan had been enacted, very little climate change-related issues are mainstreamed and used in these policies despite Windhoek.
