Speaking at the 10th session of the Namibia-Sweden Bilateral Working Group meeting, Deputy Minister of International Relations and Cooperation Jennely Matundu highlighted the potential for Sweden’s advanced mining technology and expertise to enhance Namibia’s mineral beneficiation.

“We see scope to explore new growth opportunities in areas of renewable energies, value addition of minerals, tourism, information and communication technologies, transport, logistics management, and maritime, among others,” Matundu said.

She also acknowledged Sweden’s historic support for Namibia’s independence and stressed the importance of strengthening cooperation across key sectors, including academic exchanges between institutions in both countries.

“We recognise that people-to-people exchanges are crucial to bilateral ties, and we must continue to strengthen productivity, enhance business, explore investment and trade opportunities, and promote cultural exchanges,” she added.

State Secretary to the Minister for International Development Cooperation and Foreign Trade of Sweden, Håkan Jevrell, reiterated Sweden’s commitment to sustainability, social responsibility, and investment in Namibia’s economic sectors, particularly in transport, energy, and digitalisation.

“From our side, we welcome any increase in our collaboration. We have strong industry capacity within sectors that are of high interest to Namibia, including transport, renewable energy, and mining. By incorporating local value addition, we can further strengthen our partnership,” Jevrell said.

Both officials welcomed the revival of the Namibia-Sweden Working Group as a crucial platform for enhancing bilateral cooperation.

They agreed that stronger ties between the two nations would unlock economic opportunities, promote sustainable development, and drive innovation in key sectors.
