We are delighted to invite you this year to our first live report from Namibia. I am currently travelling through the steps for children projects again – fortunately, there is currently no sign of the coronavirus crisis at all.
The effects of the inhuman war in Ukraine and the associated restrictions on many resources, however, are also very clearly felt here: The diesel price is rising from 17 N$ to over 20 N$, but above all, the prices of staple foods are soaring – the price of sugar will rise by 20% next week, while the media are also reporting price increases of 3-8 % for maize meal, rice and bread. This once again particularly affects the poorest of the poor, who can no longer afford these prices and are once again reliant on meals in soup kitchens. I will tell you more about this next Thursday in a Zoom meeting live from Namibia and look forward to numerous participants.

We would be delighted if you would also forward this link to others interested in steps for children or Namibia.
Warm regards from Namibia, Michael Hoppe
