Plains Camp sits conveniently close to Wolwedans Village, providing you with the option to engage in The AridEden project and gain a deeper understanding of how Wolwedans operates. Wolwedans considers how tourism functions, who it benefits and how success is measured. The resulting strategy is embodied in The AridEden Project – Wolwedans Vision 2030, a practical framework aimed at developing more sustainable, resilient and inclusive tourism and conservation economies. This framework integrates Wolwedans' 5Cs sustainability commitment (Commerce, Conservation, Community, Culture and Consciousness) with five spheres of engagement for each 'C', all guided by a business philosophy that balances people, planet and profit. Getting involved in The AridEden Project at Wolwedans is an opportunity for you to contribute to sustainable initiatives in Namibia's desert landscape. People are central to this strategy. Their well-being, development and empowerment are crucial for their success and for the progress of Namibia. Wolwedans nurtures this through vocational training programs, projects supporting the desert-based economy and by instilling a values system throughout their entire team. Consider participating in or supporting these training programs that focus on skill development and empowerment within local communities, fostering economic sustainability and enhancing the well-being of individuals. The potential impact of The AridEden Project lies in inspiring others to adopt similar approaches, not only in Namibia but globally – from decision-makers and industry leaders to politicians, educators and youth. Together with Wolwedans, you can raise awareness about local responses to global issues by sharing their journey and showcasing sustainable solutions. Beyond driving change and promoting a new way, The AridEden Project is about pursuing happiness: content guests like you, a satisfied team and stakeholders and a healthy environment.
