The Foundation is governed by a board that comprises a majority of independent, non-executive directors. We operate according to a robust governance framework that is periodically audited by PriceWaterhouseCoopers Namibia.

We are apolitical and we welcome young people regardless of their political affiliation, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, religion, or nationality. We uphold strong values of non-discrimination and are intentional about ensuring demographic inclusivity in our programming, representation, and funding.

The Foundation is funded by private donors.

85% of all the funding received goes directly to programme beneficiaries, while 15% is reserved for operational costs.

We occasionally receive items and/or donations, which are ad-hoc and dependent on One Economy donors, so we are not able to commit to timing, quantity or what the item will be available for us to forward to any organisation. Any donations we give out will be publicised, and our team will identify where the need we can meet is greatest. We distribute these to vulnerable groups and/or individuals on our database. If you would like to be added to our database, please send an email to admin@1economy.org, specifying the needs and number of beneficiaries.

All cases of minor children are handled by social workers in the employ of the Ministry of Gender Equality, Poverty Eradication, and Social Welfare or any Police Station where the case warrants police intervention. In cases where children need medical attention, the child should be taken to the nearest health facility, where a medical doctor will complete forms required for later use in court cases. Private medical doctors are usually not willing to testify in a court of law.

Requests for mentorship are among the most common requests the Office of the Executive Chairperson receives. Due to Mrs Geingos' scale of engagements and time constraints, it's extremely difficult to sustain one-on-one mentorship. In lieu of this, Mrs Geingos has structured her public engagements so that they enable her to share her views on a broad range of issues in the hope that this will assist with navigating complex spaces for young people and support professionals in growing in their careers.
