Unam law students inaugurate ‘Graves into Gardens’ project

NEWS IN SHORT

A group of Unam law students, under the name Cicero Law Firm, has inaugurated a social project, 'Graves into Gardens', to beautify and plant trees at the Opoganda cemetery in an effort to preserve the historical site and promote environmental sustainability and community engagement.

Cicero is a hypothetical law firm formed by a group of fourth-year law students at the University of Namibia (Unam) as part of the course work.

Tuyenikelao Shipoke, a member of the firm, said the project is a way for the students to contribute to society.

Miss Earth Namibia 2023, Martha Kautanevali, was officially appointed as the patron for the project. She said the goal of transforming neglected gravesites into a serene and dignified environment through tree planting, pathway creation and cleaning is not only a tribute to those who have passed but also a gift to their families and the community at large.
