π Youth Financial Literacy Workshop β Rundu π
We are proud to have successfully concluded a 3-day Financial Literacy Workshop at the Rundu Multipurpose Youth Resource Centre, reaching over 82 youth aged 18β35.
The workshop created a powerful platform for learning, sharing, and engagement, with participants actively contributing and showing great interest in topics that directly impact their daily lives and future.
π‘ Key sessions were delivered by our valued partners:
- Ministry of Labour, Industrial Relations and Employment Creation β Mental Health and Finances (financial stress, coping strategies, wellbeing)
- Namibia β Smart Money Management for Youth (budgeting, saving, banking services, credit & debt)
- Ministry of Education, Innovation, Youth, Sport, Arts and Culture β Credit Scheme Programs (youth funding opportunities, responsible borrowing)
- Anti-Corruption Commission Namibia β Corruption Awareness Among Youth (impact of corruption, integrity, accountability)
π We extend our sincere appreciation to all our partner presenters for their commitment to youth development and for sharing valuable knowledge and practical insights.
This impactful workshop was made possible through the generous support of the FirstRand Foundation Trust / Namibia.
The level of participation and engagement clearly shows that there is a significant gap and strong need for collaborative platforms that address financial literacy, mental wellbeing, and ethical leadership among youth.
π€ Thank you to all stakeholders for joining hands with us to make this initiative a success. Together, we continue to empower young people to make informed decisions and build a better future.
