Positioning Namibia’s Youth at the Center of Its Energy Future

Namibia stands at a pivotal moment in its national development, faced simultaneously with a significant challenge and an extraordinary opportunity.

On one hand, youth unemployment continues to be one of the most critical issues confronting the country. It limits upward mobility, burdens families, and places strain on national development. On the other hand, Namibia is now emerging as a promising energy hub, following the discovery of vast oil and gas reserves in the Orange Basin. These discoveries could fuel unprecedented economic growth over the coming decades—if the right workforce is in place.

This is where the Lelo Energies Student Conference 2025 enters with purpose and urgency.

The Role of the Conference

The Student Conference is not a celebration of the sector’s success—it is a strategic response to Namibia’s most urgent developmental need: youth employment and workforce readiness. The conference is intentionally designed to connect the untapped talent of Namibia’s students and early-career professionals with the future demands of the energy industry.

It provides a platform for:

 

  • Direct engagement with industry leaders

  • Exposure to technical and non-technical career pathways

  • Insights into the upstream oil & gas sector, energy transition, and local content opportunities

  • Conversations around entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainability

 

This is more than an event. It’s an investment in people.

Why Now Matters

Namibia is still in the pre-production phase of oil and gas development. The next five years will be spent building infrastructure, finalizing investment decisions, and preparing for production. This period is critical for developing the local workforce that will operate, maintain, and lead these systems.

If Namibia is to benefit from these resources, it cannot afford to import its future energy workforce. It must train it now—from within.

Empowering Youth = Building the Industry

By equipping young Namibians with knowledge, networks, and clarity about the industry’s demands, the Student Conference directly supports the broader goals of the country’s National Upstream Local Content Policy. It helps convert national resource wealth into long-term economic empowerment, social inclusion, and skilled job creation.

The future of this industry isn’t just offshore or in boardrooms—it’s in classrooms, lecture halls, and young professionals still finding their way. The Lelo Energies Student Conference is about giving them that direction.
