TheUnitedNationsOfficeonDrugsandCrime(UNODC)hostedatwo-daygender mainstreaming workshop at Swakopmund this week, for multi-sectoral service providers in the Criminal Justice Sector (CJS) that manages gender-based violence.
Dr Linda Naidoo the UNODC Coordinator of GenderBasedViolenceProgrammingintheSouthern African Development Community (SADC) region, at the workshop held on Wednesday and Thursday said, “we feel it is very important that gender mainstreaming is institutionalised in every organization.Itisimportantforthecountry,butitis importantfortheinternationalframeworksanditis particularlylookingattheAgenda2030.Lookingat how we achieve the seventeen sustainable development goals and if you look at each one of those sustainable development goals, you find that an element of equality of women need to be investinginthosesustainablegoals.”
AccordingtoNaidoo,sustainablegoalnumberfive dealswithparticularandholisticallyontheequality of women, and the empowerment of women. “So, gendermainstreamingreallyimplieslookingathow wecanincludeastrategywithinanorganizationthat looksattheinequalities,thediscrimination,looksat theneedsandrolesofwomenandmenandhowwe canhaveanequaldistributionofrolesdependingon relevantneeds.”
Naidoo further said the workshop invites participantstolookathowtheycantakeforwardthe strategy and transform their organizations so that the best interest of women and men are equally attendedto.
Thepurposeoftheworkshop,amongstothers,isto create an understanding of the impact of gender mainstreaming in the context of institutional transformation, and the integration of a gender equalityperspectivewithinourvarioussectors.The objectives of the workshop were to understand concepts on gender equality and women's empowerment, inform participants of the international framework on gender equality and women'sempowerment,integrateagenderequality perspective into the organization's core processes,
and determine how an institution should be organised to contribute to gender equality within thescopeofitsworkingresults.
Major-General Anne-Marrie Nainda: Deputy Inspector-General for Administration in the Namibian Police Force said, “it is imperative to highlight[atthispoint]thatgender-mainstreaming must be a guiding principle to ensure effective multi-sectoral services in the Criminal Justice Sector (CJS). Hence, all individuals involved in providing these services, including policy-drafters, law enforcement officers, prosecutors, judges, and other service providers, should understand the importance of gender-equality and the roleitplaysinpromotingjustice.”
Nainda said regardless of their unique mandates, theirendgoalasCriminalJusticeProvidersisthe same, “thus, we should prioritise gender equality and adopt a holistic approach, to ensure our servicesareeffectiveandmeettheuniqueneedsof allindividuals,irrespectiveoftheirgender.”
Nainda further said, “in order to achieve the prioritising of gender equality in the workplace and the adoption of a holistic approach, for effective services, we ought to develop gendersensitivepoliciesandguidelines,providegendersensitive training and promote the inclusivity for all.”
Nainda also said, because men and women have different experiences, needs, and priorities, it is important to understand the need for gender mainstreaming, failure to recognise and address thesedifferencesmayleadtoinequalities.
Nainda emphasised that gender-mainstreaming is notaboutcreatingaspecialtreatmentforwomen, but rather ensuring that gender equality is integratedintoallpoliciesandprograms.Itisnota buzz word but is a crucial tool for achieving sustainable development goals and addressing pastgenderdisparities.

DBN Executive of Marketing and Corporate Communication, Jerome Mutumba,shinesalightonrenewablepotential.
Development Bank of Namibia's (DBN) Executive of Marketing, Jerome Mutumba, has announced three new enterprises that have used Development Bank finance to strengthen their enterpriseswithsolarenergy Theyincludeatruck and tractor repair plant in Gobabis, a charcoal manufacturer,alsonearGobabis,andalargeretail outletinOkahandja.
Mutumba said although DBN is associated with photovoltaic parks, larger solar electricity generatorsthatfeedintothegrid,theBankalsofinances solar power installations for enterprises. Mutumba points out that the spread of locations showsthatsolarinstallationscanbenefitbusinessesacrossNamibia. Insomecases,hesays,anew connection to the grid may be prohibitively expensive, if the connection and the grid consumption costs are considered. In this case, the costofrenewablebecomeseconomicalinthemediumtolongterm,withtheinitialcostwrittenoff against future savings and gains. “In the face of potentialshortagesintheSouthernAfricanPower Pool, and Namibia's reliance on electricity imports,independentpowergenerationforownconsumption becomes an attractive form of security for business continuity whether the business is gridreliantornot.”
The trend towards own generation by the Namibianprivatesector,throughsolarpower,Mutumba observes, has become more prevalent, with widely reported capacity installed by large retail facilitiesandfueloutlets.Thisisalsoinlinewith new approaches in environmental and social governance (ESG). In addition, own generation bybusinessesalleviatescallsonthenationalgrid, making electricity available for household consumption and enterprises that are not able to establishtheirownsolargeneration.
Developmentally, the net impact, Mutumba points out is beneficial, with greater enterprise security directly linked to preservation of employment.
The next frontier in the field of solar generation, headds,isinstallationinaffordablehousingdevelopments, taking the form of solar water heating and / or generation for household use.Although the initial cost will be passed on to the owner of the new home, the increment in cost has the medium to long-term effect of making home ownershipmoreaffordableonamonthlybasis.
On the topic of how the Bank can finance solar generation,MutumbasaysthattheBankprovides finance under multiple sectoral facilities, including tourism, retail and wholesale, manufacturingandtransportandlogistics.Itcanalsobe financed as an addition to affordable housing developments.
HealsosaysthattheBank'sKfW-supportedrecovery loan may also be a source of finance. The loan, which has a duration of 32 months or less, hasafixedinterestrateof5,925%butnointerest is levied for the first 12 months of the loan. Althoughtheloanhasashortduration,enterprises that have the reserves and are in a position to repay faster, should consider the opportunity If businesses benefit from solar, we have a duty to support it and add it to our operational sustainability,Mutumbaconcludes.
