Digital enabler, MTC on Monday held the annual Sponsorship Indaba in Swakopmund, where it reminded and stressed to all of its 12 sponsorship beneficiaries about their sponsorship contractual obligations while imparting necessary leadership and sustainable skills to the beneficiaries.

The focus of this year’s Indaba was on sharing relevant leadership skills and institutional governance and sustainable and management knowledge that will aid the beneficiaries’ organizations in catapulting their organizations towards competency in reaching their respective institutional

If you are falling short of our expectations, we are open to engaging you and exploring and providing guidance where it is necessary to ensure that you deliver towards a common objective. Additionally, and very important, is transparency and accountability in all your affairs, especially in your quarterly reports to us.”
