Youth gives me hope – Geingos
The First Lady of Namibia, Monica Geingos, and singer and political activist Sir Bob Geldof, were honoured with the '2018 World without Aids Award' this weekend.
Geingos received the award for her contribution to the global Aids response and her leadership in supporting the global agenda to end Aids by 2030.
Geingos tweeted this weekend that this award is dedicated to the #BeFree Movement, a project she has initiated to engage the youth in Namibia.
“The recognition is a timely reminder that genuine youth inclusion adds real value in both policy formulation and implementation. The youth of today is the generation that will end Aids. Let them lead,” she tweeted.
