The Minister of Gender Equality and Child Welfare (MGECW) says mothers can leave a child in a safe place at various identified places in accordance with the current Act, instead of abandoning them at unsafe sites. 

In the heart of the Okahandja Park informal settlement in Katutura, a safe haven is giving hope to children in the community. 

Local resident Albertina Eises is offering afternoon classes, day care, and meals to children in the area, creating a nurturing space where they can learn, play, and grow.
