By 2019, the Swakopmund municipality had spent over N$200 million on facilities at the DRC. The government food program was supplying families with food packages. The DRC includes a youth development and community centre, a clinic and laboratory, and a hostel for orphans. The Dantago Arts and Craft centre was built by the residents using recycled plastic materials, such as bottles, combined with cement. (en)
