The Opuwo Youth Choir has won two medals at the African Asia Pacific Choir Games in Mauritius. Sponsored by the Lindholm Charity Organisation, the youth choir secured a gold medal in the open competition category and a silver medal in the Grand Prix of Nations on Tuesday. The African Asia Pacific Choir Games and Grand Prix of Nations are currently underway in Mauritius and will conclude on 5 October. Beyond financial and technical support, Treve says the organisation will again support the choir to take part in the World Choir Games, taking place next August in Sweden. Treve notes that the choir’s achievement is significant for Namibia and Opuwo as a whole, as it reflects international recognition.
