“I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream,” said Martin Luther King, Jr. a Baptist Minister and a pivotal leader of the American rights movement. American today has more to thank for Luther’s dream.

In 2004, the Namibian government under the leadership of Dr. Sam Nujoma adopted Vision 2030, a framework that is guiding Namibia's development programme, and strategies to achieving national objectives.
Vision 2030 is also aimed at improving the quality of life for Namibian people, moving it to similar levels enjoyed in developed world. The document is a unifying vision, which provides direction to government ministries, regional and local government authorities, the private sector, NGO's and civil societies.
Vision 2030 concerns itself with the people in relation to their social and economic well-being, which will translate into a long life expectancy and sustainable population growth. Even though the document is flexible, the main themes of realising the country's long term vision are to reduce inequality and improved social welfare, and promote human resources development and institutional capacity building, macro-economic issues, population, Health and development, the natural resources sector, acquiring knowledge in Information Technology, and factors of the external environmental.
One major principle upon which Vision 2030 is based is partnerships. This is a prerequisite for the achievement of dynamic, efficient and sustainable development, and will ultimately involve all members of the Namibian society.
The driving force for realising the objective of Vision 2030 are, Education, Science, Technology, Health, Development, Sustainable Agriculture, Peace, Social Justice, and Gender equality.
