This week, i-BreakFree, in collaboration with @_WBCG and other stakeholders, conducted a school campaign focused on Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) awareness reaching young people across the Epembe, Omundaungilo, and Oshikunde constituencies in the Ohangwena Region. Between 21 and 24 September 2026, the three-day campaign reached learners at Epembe Combined School, Hifikepunye Pohamba Combined School and Oluwaya Secondary School, with a focus on bringing accurate, age-appropriate SRH information and digital health resources closer to young people.

Through interactive sessions, learners engaged on key issues affecting young people, including HIV prevention, teenage pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), gender-based violence (GBV), and available HIV and SRH prevention, treatment and support services. A key component of the campaign was also introducing young people to the iBreakFree.org SRH Web Application, providing them with a convenient digital platform to access reliable SRH information beyond face-to-face engagements. Senior Peer Educators and Peer Educators supported learners in accessing and navigating the platform.

The campaign created a safe and interactive space for learners to ask questions, raise concerns, and receive accurate information on sexual and reproductive health. Learners requiring additional support were screened and referred to appropriate services offered by WBCG. These services included HIV testing, family planning, PrEP and PEP, as well as STI screening and treatment. Dignity packs were also distributed to learners as part of the campaign’s efforts to support menstrual health and dignity. Across the three schools, the campaign reached 750 learners, combining face-to-face SRH education, peer-led engagement, digital access and the distribution of 150 dignity packs to help young people make informed decisions about their sexual and reproductive health and wellbeing.

The One Economy Foundation has become aware of a fraud incident in which a donor's pledge payment, intended for the Foundation's fundraising gala dinner on 01 October 2026, was paid into an account that does not belong to the Foundation. The payment was made in response to a fraudulent invoice sent from the email address (geingosmonika@gmail.com), by a person impersonating the Foundation's Chairperson, Mrs. Monica Geingos. piped.video/HaAAN7I2SmA #NBCNews #nbcdigitalnews #nbcDSTV282 #nbcGOtv20 #nbcplusapp

The outreach also created space for learners to ask questions, understand their rights and learn where to seek help when experiencing violence or facing challenges. Speakers encouraged learners to prioritise their education, practise good personal hygiene, respect themselves and others, and avoid alcohol and drugs. This outreach is part of our ongoing work to ensure young people have access to the information, support and opportunities they need to make informed choices about their health, wellbeing and future. 💪🏾
