The Swapo Party Women's Council (SPWC) has unveiled a series of reforms and preparations for its 9th Congress.

The Congress will take place from 09 to 11 December at Katima Mulilo in the Zambezi Region.

Swapo Party Secretary General Sophia Shaningwa has described political independence without economic empowerment as incomplete, urging women to participate fully in Namibia's economic transformation.

Swapo Secretary General Sophia Shaningwa inaugurated the amended Constitution of the Swapo Party Women's Council (SPWC) at Omuthiya.

During the 7th Ordinary Congress of the Swapo Party in Windhoek last year, revisions were made to the constitution of the SPWC to align it with the party's framework.

The Swapo Party Women's Council (SPWC) Central Committee held its meeting at Outapi.
