Langer Heinrich

Langer Heinrich supports certain initiatives that have long-term benefits to Namibia, specifically aimed towards education and skills development.  This involves funding at a local school level together with providing financial assistance for a youth development programme aimed at identifying high performing students who would otherwise have limited resources to enable them to further develop their skills.  This programme requires very high levels of commitment from the students and is proving highly successful.  In addition Langer Heinrich is working closely with a local artisan training facility whereby students are provided with practical training at the mine site, and senior artisans are made available to the college as lecturers whilst at the same time the usual lecturers spend time working on the mine site to expose them to the latest technology and practices.
