dc.description.abstract |
In 1996 Namibia started a preventive programme in Windhoek with a grant from the People's Republic of China. This programme is called the After School Centre and is on the corner of Rand street and Safari Street. The Centre is used to keep children who are schooling in Windhoek busy after school, thus preventing them from going in the streets. It is also used to provide some skills to street children who are/were living at the Interim Shelter. However there is a feeling that this Centre is being underutilized. To find out whether this is true or not this research has to be undertaken and the following has to be investigated such as the characteristics of street children, training of staff, the needs of children and resources available |
