Power of Locals<\/h2>\n

This is the plan: to hand over responsibility for steps projects in Namibia increasingly into the hands of local people<\/strong>, so that we and our National Coordinator will then only be available as advisors and points of contact.<\/p>\n

Jackie Sanjath<\/b><\/h5>\n

Welcome Jackie! We are fortunate to welcome the power lady Jackie Sanjath in Gobabis as the new manager of the joinery and administration as well <\/strong>to welcome her. For around a year now, she has been responsible for the guesthouse<\/strong> and has impressed us with her expertise. Business plans and tenders are no foreign language to her, and overnight guests also like to come back to Gobabis.<\/p>\n

Milly Bock<\/b><\/h5>\n

Since 2018, Milly was a reliable partner in cooperation<\/strong> with steps for children. In addition, she was always at Markel\u2019s side when questions arose or larger projects came up, and she worked together with her, supported her with advice and practical help, and shared her accounting expertise.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, Melvyrine\u00a0Bock died on 28 June 2021<\/a> after a severe Covid illness. We miss her greatly as an active partner at steps for children and she leaves a huge gap that we cannot fill.<\/p>\n
