Welcome to 2025
– a special year for KAYEC
This year we will be awaiting our 30th anniversary at KAYEC. Back in 1995, The Anglican and Lutheran churches established the Katatura Youth Enterprise Centre which developed into a hub of education, a safe space for the marginalized youth and a youth empowerment initiative with several locations in Namibia. Our VTCs and After School Centres are part of the stories of a lot of young adults or those that have been left behind because of their difficult living conditions – we are proud to say that KAYEC made a difference for many in these past 30 years.
In order to celebrate this milestone in our history, there will be activities and a major celebration in July. Stay tuned!
