Namibia National Students Organisation

The Namibia National Students Organisation (NANSO) was founded in July 1984 as a non-racial, democratic and independent student organisation. Since its formation, the organisation has been organising from the basic understanding that there is a need for students, together with other strata of our society, to make education respond to the needs of the country and its people. In as such the formation of NANSO was a necessary development in the struggle of the Namibian people against colonialism and foreign domination. Over the years NANSO has succeeded in organising, mobilising and uniting Namibian students so as to develop an awareness of national identity and unity of purpose.
