YES Network Namibia aims to provide a platform for young, vibrant, innovative Namibian earth scientists with a passion for information sharing to share and learn about earth sciences.
The Beginning of YES-Network
Following
the proclaiming of triennium International Year of Planet Earth (IYPE) by UN
General Assembly in 2007. Youth all over the world took an initiative to
support idea of IYPE and implementing its various themes by joining their hands
and form a network called Young Earth Scientist (YES) network. The network
provides a brilliantly platform for young professionals both practitioners and
academicians) from different fields of earth sciences aged below 35 years old, to
present their concern and solutions regarding to different scientific
challenges facing our planet earth today, as well as sharing experiences
together.YES Namibia was formed in 2009 and consolidated in 2013.
What
we plan to do as a YES Network – National Chapter
Our chapter,a voluntary association, is composed of young earth
scientists both academicians and practitioners who aged below 35 years old,
working on the basis of the ten themes of IYPE. We will plan and execute
activities of the network at national level and link with the executive board
of the network worldwide. We aim to link young earth scientists at national
level with other young scientists worldwide.
