Elsje Fowler on World Autism Day
April 2, 2025
Today marks World Autism Day, a global moment to shine a light on autism spectrum disorders and the lives they touch. Here in Windhoek, a groundbreaking step forward is happening with the launch of Namibia’s first autism-specific private school in 2025, led by a passionate advocate for change, Elsje Fowler.
As the owner of Fowler House and the driving force behind this initiative, Elsje is working tirelessly to transform how autistic children and their families experience education and support in our country. In honor of World Autism Day, we were thrilled to have her with us to dive into this vital conversation.
