In 2010, at the age of 26, Outlook Inspirations winner Livey Van Wyk became the youngest person ever to be elected mayor in Namibia - an achievement all the more extraordinary because just a few years before the townspeople of Witvlei had made it very clear that she wasn't welcome there. She was attacked and ostracised because she was HIV positive. Livey had got the diagnosis soon after discovering she was pregnant.

Livey appeared on Outlook on 13th December 2016.
