About Frieda

The person who originally initiated the project is Frieda Kemuiko Geises. She highly motivated and convinced of its necessity. Her original intention was to offer help for the most vulnerable children and their families, providing better chances for their future. Since 2003 Frieda teaches children on a regular basis. This means she has the skills as well as profound experience working with children of different ages. Apart from this, Frieda's ability to speak various languages allows her to communicate with members of almost all tribes present in Namibia. The fact that Frieda has lived in Katutura since 2000 makes her a knowledgable member of this community with all its particular social and economic issues. This feeds back into the structure and aims of the projects she created for the inhabitants of Havana.
