Inclusivity Etiquette in Namibia

Namibians generally expect people to be respectful and non-confrontational about differences in ethnicity, language, religion, gender, or sexuality, and it is best to avoid jokes or assumptions that single out a group. In practice, urban areas such as Windhoek are usually more open and mixed, while in some rural or conservative communities people may be more reserved, so a polite, low-key approach works best.
