Ambassador Hellao graces the Sister Cities International 70th Anniversary Africa Region Ambassadors Forum

At the recent Sister Cities International 70th Anniversary Africa Region Ambassadors Forum held at the George Washington University, H.E. Ambassador Wilbard Hellao highlighted Namibia’s commitment to using sister city partnerships as practical tools for commercial diplomacy. The City of Windhoek’s Sister-City partnerships with San Antonio, Texas and Richmond, Virginia reflect complementary strengths in water security, climate resilience, governance, workforce development, trade and investment.

The Embassy views sister city partnerships as more than symbolic. They not only foster lasting people-to-people linkages but also support Namibia’s development priorities while creating opportunities for mutually beneficial bilateral cooperation.
