The Namibia Accelerator Lab team
The UNDP Namibia Accelerator Lab, also referred to as #AccLabNam is one of 60 UNDP labs worldwide. The Namibia lab focuses on strengthening and fast-tracking Climate Change adaptation through locally & regionally sourced #innovative interventions and knowledge. The Accelerator Labs are UNDP’s new way of working in development. Together with our core partners, the State of Qatar and the Federal Republic of Germany, 60 labs serving 78 countries will work together with national and global partners to find radically new approaches that fit the complexity of current development challenges.

The labs will transform our collective approach by introducing new services, backed by evidence and practice, and by accelerating the testing and dissemination of solutions within and across countries. Sense-making, collective intelligence, solutions mapping, and experimentation will be part of the new offer from UNDP to governments.
