Namibia: ‘Don’t Touch My Private Parts’ Teacher Gelda Waterboer Wins Award for Child Protection Advocacy

An otjiwarongo teacher’s child protection advocacy on social media was yesterday recognised by the Legal Assistance Centre (LAC) for helping the organisation reach 170 000 children and adults.

Rogate Primary School teacher Gelda Waterboer (32) was honoured for her child protection advocacy after her ‘private parts’ video went viral in August.

The video, a collaboration with the LAC teaching children about consent, has been viewed over 164 million times on social media.
