The King of the Belgians visited the Hope Initiative Southern Africa Community Centre in the heart of Katutura.
The centre cares for vulnerable people.
King Philippe, who was accompanied by a delegation of, among others, |Khomas Regional Governor Laura McLeod-Katjirua, toured the centre.
Co-founded by Patricia Sola, the centre feeds and offers educational programmes to children and other vulnerable community members.
Today marks 75 years since the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.
However, demonstrations in Windhoek turned into violent clashes between the residents and the apartheid police, resulting in the killing and wounding of many natives 11 years after the document's passage in 1959.
These are the graves of those who felt the fatal wrath of the South African police forces on December 10, 1959.
After operating for a century without a school hall, St. Barnabas Primary School in Katutura now boasts one.
The school hall, which was inaugurated today, was made possible through the contributions of parents, teachers, and a boost from NamPower.
The principal of St. Barnabas Primary School, Nahason Mbangura, says that a school hall is needed for various activities, as it is not only for the school but can also be used by the local community.
