The Secretary for the Swapo Party Women's Council (SPWC), Fransina Kahungu, says there is a need for Namibian women to narrate their own stories and the role they have played in the development of the nation.

It is against this background that the Council called for a one-day workshop on the recording and collection of information about women in development, a strategic review of the wing's annual activities, and the planning of regional activities.

The Namibia Planned Parenthood Association (NAPPA) and the Swapo Party Women's Council (SPWC) have agreed to cooperate on issues of sexual reproductive health.

NAPPA and the SPWC further agreed that assistance is needed within local communities, particularly among youth.
