We are aware that once harmony and social cohesion prevails, Namibia can flourish and attend to the pressing matters of economic development and poverty eradication. It\u2019s therefore a no-brainer that the Bank aligns itself to this great initiative.\u201d<br>Accepting the sponsorship, MTC&#8217;s Chief of Human Capital and Corporate Affairs, Tim Ekandjo, stated: \u201cOur delight is unbound and we welcome the stance showed by corporates thus far. We are happy for the gratitude showed by Bank of Namibia through the pledging of N$50 000 to the course. Gender-based violence is a social ill in society and it is time for men to take the front seat to engage each other on how to end this. Although, as corporates, we are not industry experts on combating gender based violence, the proceeds made from this course will be geared towards the<br>experts that can amplify this course and this is our contribution as corporates to the fight against gender-based violence.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"alignnormal\"><!-- MetaSlider 271797 not found --><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":280549,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,28],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-280543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","category-sports"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.8 -
