The Namibia University of Science and Technology (NUST) and Road Fund Administration (RFA) are joining forces to advance research and innovation in Namibia's road sector.

The two entities signed a N$10 million funding agreement to that effect.

The University of Namibia (UNAM) says the construction of a wastewater treatment facility at the Katima Mulilo campus will help address long-standing sewage challenges at the campus while promoting research and innovation.
