NATIONAL TRAINING SERIES 2025
At Shift Hub, we aim to address a critical need within the Namibian community and with support we are confident that we can create lasting, positive change.
Namibian youth face significant obstacles, including high unemployment rates and mental health challenges. The World Bank reported a youth unemployment rate of 41% in 2020. In this regard, prominent Namibian motivational speaker Sam Shivute has emphasised the importance of mindset in overcoming these challenges. He advocates for empowering the youth to take active roles in rebuilding Namibia’s economy post-pandemic, rather than waiting for opportunities to come to them.
Shift Hub will launch the 2025 National training series, starting in the Windhoek Rural Constituency, home to about 22,000 residents, including 15% young adults. These workshops aim to address youth disengagement and low motivation in the area. Shift Hub envisions that, with a positive mindset, these young adults can contribute actively to their region's growth. Partnering with committed sponsors will enable Shift Hub to equip these individuals with vital tools for personal and professional growth, empowering them to make a meaningful community impact.
Additionally, Frieda Stephanus, National Coordinator for the #BeFree Movement, highlighted the pressing mental health challenges facing Namibian youth, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. She stressed the necessity of providing young people with the right support systems, mentorship, and mental health services to help them thrive. Experts continue to identify mental health as a priority in Namibia, underscoring the relevance of this initiative to address these issues with realistic and impactful interventions.
For these reasons, we warmly invite you to join us in this transformative endeavour to empower Namibia’s youth and help launch our “Change Your Mind – Change Your Life” training series. Together, let’s make a lasting impact, fostering a thriving Namibian economy by empowering young adults to take ownership of their futures and uplift their communities.
