On an initiative of an alumna of DHPS (Deutsche Höhere Privatschule), a contact was established between the school and SeGeNa e.V. (Social-ecological association for the promotion of the German-Namibian cooperation).

The first joint project is now displayed in the DHPS school garden: A hydroponic plant that will not only supply the refectory with fresh vegetables and herbs, but also raise the awareness and knowledge of the young people about the regional production of healthy food and the importance of sustainable projects.
The plant was financed by donations from the SeGeNa association and installed by a Namibian company.

True to the DHPS mission statement, sustainability is a central concern of the school. The people involved in the project are spread throughout the school community: Members of the group "Green Science DHPS - Sustainable", the school canteen and the boarding school, but also the school management and the administration will be involved in the maintenance of the newly created hydroponic system.
