The vibrant coastal city of Swakopmund, Namibia, is buzzing with excitement as it prepares to host the 2025 National Congress of the Namibia Association of People with Physical Disabilities (NAPPD) from June 9th to June 11th. This significant event will bring together a diverse group of individuals, including people with physical disabilities, advocates, politicians, and various stakeholders, all united by a common goal: promoting inclusivity and advancing the rights of those with disabilities in Namibia.
At the heart of this year’s Congress is an inspiring theme—investing in inclusive development and embracing leadership renewal. The focus is on enhancing community-based support systems that empower individuals with physical disabilities. This approach not only highlights the importance of creating equitable opportunities but also fosters a sense of belonging and participation in society.
For many attendees, this is more than just a conference; it’s a golden opportunity for collaboration and innovation. Delegates will take part in lively discussions aimed at reviewing and amending organizational policies and the constitution. They will also deliberate on regional reports and develop actionable strategies for the years 2025 to 2028. A key highlight of the Congress is the election of a new National Executive Committee, which will steer the Association toward its future goals and ambitions.
In addition to internal governance matters, the Congress is set to strengthen relationships among government entities, civil society organizations, and potential donors, paving the way for a more inclusive Namibia. This collaboration is vital not just for advancing policies, but also for securing resources that will enhance the quality of life for individuals with disabilities.
The NAPPD Congress encapsulates a vision for an inclusive Namibia, where every citizen has the opportunity to thrive. As the nation looks forward to shaping a brighter future, the engagement of all stakeholders will be crucial in achieving this goal.
