Marlene Lombard says GBV remains a huge concern

DESERT FM July 17, 2025

[PODCAST]

Gender-based violence continues to haunt communities across Namibia, with rural areas often suffering in silence. But in Aroab this week, residents broke that silence. They marched in protest, demanding action after the rape of a 60-year-old woman shocked the town.
One of the loudest voices in the march was Marlene Lombard.
She joins Desert FM to talk about the heartbreak, the fear, the urgent need for protection of women and girls, and the fight for stronger laws and accountability in Namibia
