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. 

Some mothers who gave birth to premature babies at the Rundu State Hospital said the NEO for Namibia NGO has been a beacon of hope.

It was an emotional affair as various mothers gathered to share stories about their premature babies during the NGO's 10th anniversary.
