The Trade Union Congress of Namibia (TUCNA) gears up for its monumental 5th National Congress and 4th Regional Congress, poised to be a pivotal moment in the journey towards Namibian development. Set against the backdrop of economic transformation, employment creation, resource redistribution, participatory democracy, and social development, this congress signifies a beacon of hope and progress for workers across the nation.

Scheduled for the 29th and 30th, with pre-congress discussions leading the way, the agenda is packed with crucial topics that reflect the aspirations and challenges facing Namibian society. From shaping economic policies to fostering inclusive growth, TUCNA stands at the forefront of advocating for the rights and welfare of workers.

At the heart of the congress lies the spirit of democracy, where internal processes pave the way for new leadership, fresh mandates, and transparent accountability. This democratic ethos underscores TUCNA’s commitment to representing the diverse interests of its members and ensuring their voices resonate in the corridors of power.

With over 200 members convening to deliberate on various fronts, including the youth, women, and men, TUCNA exemplifies inclusivity in action. By fostering a platform where every voice matters, regardless of age, gender, or background, the union reinforces its core values of equality and representation.

Indeed, the congress stands as a testament to TUCNA’s unwavering dedication to championing the cause of Namibian workers. As the nation marches forward towards progress and prosperity, TUCNA remains steadfast in its mission to uplift, empower, and advocate for the rights of all workers.

In the words of Mahongoro Kavivuha, the visionary leader at the helm of TUCNA, “It’s very important to know that we are moving towards that direction.” With determination and unity, TUCNA paves the way for a brighter future, where every worker can thrive and contribute to the collective success of Namibia.

As the congress unfolds, it serves as a rallying cry for solidarity, resilience, and collective action. Together, let us embark on this journey towards a more just, equitable, and prosperous Namibia, where the aspirations of every worker are realized, and the promise of a better tomorrow shines bright.
