Sanlam preserves Namibian tradition at its best

Sanlam Namibia launched the Sanlam My Culture My Life programme last week at the Namibia Independence Memorial Museum in Windhoek. The programme is aimed at promoting and preserving the diverse Namibian culture amongst youth, in particular learners. This is the fifth year the campaign is taking place. It entails the Sanlam team visiting selected schools in a given region, and engaging with learners, teachers, governors, local councillors and the community at large on their culture. Over the last four years, it was hosted in the Omusati, Kavango, Erongo, Zambezi, Hardap and //Karas regions, however this year it will be hosted by Omaheke and Otjozondjupa. The fifth edition of the roadshow is set to start in Gobabis on 8 August at the Wennie Du Plessis Senior Secondary School, thereafter they will be headed to Aminuis the following day to visit Rietquelle Junior Secondary School. The team will then proceed to Epukiro on 10 August where they will pay a visit to Epukiro Pos 3 Senior Secondary School. Thereafter, they will visit Gustav Kandjii High School in Otjinene on 11 August. The roadshow will conclude in Okakarara at the Okakarara Senior Secondary School. The travelling party will be accompanied by acclaimed musicians Ethnix and One Blood, who both have a cultural and youthful link to the target audience, tradition and culture. They will also be accompanied by a Sanlam representative who will educate and serve teachers and policy holders. Speaking at the launch of the programme, Sanlam general manger for brands and people Evans Simataa said there is no doubt that culture helps form and shape the structure and foundation of our families and our society.“It reminds us that we are part of a history that defines our past, shapes who we are today and who we are likely to become,” he said.
