AR Movement's call to formal action with RIF programme

The Affirmative Repositioning (AR) movement has urged its activists, supporters and sympathisers to formally join its reorganisation, institutionalisation and formalisation (RIF) programme, aimed at ensuring strong foundations in their pursuit of economic emancipation.AR spokesperson George Hidipo Hamba Kambala made these remarks at a press briefing held at their Windhoek office last month, where he provided an update on the outcome of their recently held Interim Activist Council (INAC) meeting and progress on their programmes.Kambala said the decision to implement the RIF program was made by INAC, the second-highest decision-making body within AR, which plays a crucial role in steering AR forward.Initially started in 2022 but suspended in the following year to allow for more academic and scientific studies, it is the first programme of its kind in Namibia, aimed at crafting a constitution and building community, district, regional and national structures, ultimately bringing order to AR operations.Meeting people’s needsAccording to Kambala, they expect to conclude the programme by the end of the year. The interim regional chairperson, with the support of the interim operational mass members, will spearhead the establishment of the structures, utilising a bottom-up approach.They will first establish the community activists’ councils, followed by district activists’ councils and the regional councils. “This approach guarantees a robust and fully functional movement infrastructure,” he said.“Becoming a formal member will go a long way in ensuring the needs and voices of the people on the ground are met.”
