This report explores a number of ways in which the Namibian Government could address the critical development tension that Namibia is confronting how to balance the economic benefits of mineral extraction with the threat that it poses to the long-term integrity of protected areas such as Skeleton Coast Park with the economic benefits of eco-tourism and the cost of implementing a viable environment protection program. This report seeks to advance the discussion of the problems, opportunities, and possible solutions to the competing interests of mineral extraction, evironment and wildlife conservation and economic eco-tourism
