About the Journal

The Namibian Journal of Environment is an inter-, multi- and transdisciplinary journal that accommodates a wide range of themes within the environmental arena. This can include agriculture, anthropology, conservation practice and science, ecology, economics, energy, land management and use, pollution, sustainability, water management, and more; within the Namibian context. The journal also tries to address the sustainable development agenda of the country in its broadest context. We publish four categories of articles:

• Section A: Research article. Publication format for empirical research, presented according to mainstreamed scientific standards, in which research findings are reported and discussed. This can include quantitative and qualitative research, as well as meta-analyses and systematic reviews.
• Section B: Short communication. Generally, shorter-format reporting of more refined, preliminary or secondary research results and field observations.
• Section C: Perspective. Contributions of this type are not based on formal research findings but should provide perspective on pertinent environmental issues in Namibia. This can range from opinion pieces to reviews or syntheses. We especially invite contributions that are likely to stimulate debate and discussion.
• Section D: Monograph. Comprehensive subject treatments, which can include taxonomic monographs or in-depth reviews of a certain topic and conference proceedings, for which authors are asked to consult the journal editor before submitting.

The Namibian Journal of Environment aims to function as a platform that showcases Namibian environmental research, regardless of scope. We welcome contributions from academics, practitioners and policy-makers.

The Namibian Journal of Environment is completely OPEN-ACCESS, and charges no publication or subscription fees.
