Namibia is the first country in the world to incorporate the protection of the environment into its constitution; some 14% of the land is protected. Per Article 95, “The State shall actively promote and maintain the welfare of the people by adopting international policies aimed at the following: maintenance of ecosystems, essential ecological processes, and biological diversity of Namibia, and utilization of living natural resources on a sustainable basis for the benefit of all Namibians, both present and future.”
