Plan 2122
Plan 2122 is the framework that will help us steer and stay on course for the realization of our vision and implementation of our mission as Otjiwana Economic Foundation and all that we stand for. It is the framed picture of our perceived future, thus as we build towards the completion of that picture, we will build piece by piece as a parcel until the picture is complete. To simplify the end goal in digestible bits, all developmental activities will be geared towards these 3 three strategic themes - areas of action - strategic aims and 12 twelve strategic objectives.
