The training focussed on a Strategic Life and Career Planning. The Katuka Mentorship Programme is the legacy of the late Lena Markus, the Namibian Businesswoman of the Year 2000. The programme has runs consistently for 16 years and to date qualified more than 280 mentees. This year’s programme concludes at the end of October with a certificate ceremony scheduled for 16 November. Katuka is sponsored by Telecom Namibia. (Photograph by Noriene van Wyk)
