Siccità — Namibia

Namibia is experiencing an active drought that began in May 2024, affecting the country on a national scale. Water availability has been significantly reduced across the region, impacting both supply systems and natural water sources.

If you are on site, be prepared for potential water shortages in accommodation, services, and public facilities. Water restrictions may be in place, and access to reliable water for drinking, hygiene, and other needs may be limited or rationed. Plan accordingly and carry sufficient water supplies with you.

Follow local authority guidance on water use and any restrictions in effect. Contact your accommodation or local officials for current information on water availability in your specific area. Monitor official announcements for updates on the situation.
