Moses Shiyakela

President

My name is Moses Shiyakela, also known as Rein: a Namibian student, aspiring model, youth advocate and writer, and the president of the Descreened chapter in Namibia. I've become increasingly interested in how the way we use technology shapes the way we experience ourselves, our relationships, and the world around us. I joined Descreened because I believe our generation deserves to experience life beyond the screen. Technology should be something we use intentionally, not something that dictates where our attention goes. Through Descreened, I hope to encourage young people to reclaim their time, reconnect with themselves and others, and choose presence over distraction.

Regina Nekaro

Vice President

I'm Regina Nekaro, the Vice President of Descreened. I joined Descreened because I wanted to be part of an organization that makes a positive difference in the lives of young people. I believe it's important to have a healthy balance with technology while making time for real-world experiences, connections, and activities. Through Descreened, I hope to help encourage others to build healthier relationships with their screens and get more involved in their communities.

Laina Shigwedha

Secretary

I'm Laina Shigwedha, the Secretary of Descreened. I joined Descreened because I wanted to help create positive change and raise awareness about healthy screen habits among young people. I also wanted to be part of a team where I could contribute to something meaningful, connect with others, and encourage students to spend more time engaging with the world around them.
