Last update: 7 hours ago

GBV & mental health push: The One Economy Foundation’s Game Changers event in Windhoek brought community conversations on gender-based violence, femicide, and mental wellbeing, including “Barbershop Corner” sessions for men to speak openly and seek support. Education quality & learner safety: The Ministry of Education launched a new Norms and Standards Framework for Schools, including hostel minimum operating procedures, with 31 performance indicators to help officials monitor quality, resources, leadership, and learner wellbeing. Trauma care upgrade in the north: The MVA Fund handed Onandjokwe Intermediate Hospital about N$4m in equipment (C-Arm plus orthopaedic tools) to improve local trauma and orthopaedic treatment and reduce unnecessary patient transfers. Judicial wellbeing spotlight: Chief Justice Peter Shivute marked the International Day of Judicial Well-Being, stressing that stress in judges and magistrates is real and should not be met at the cost of health. Household debt and mental strain: Parliament’s economy committee heard how cash loans and loan sharks are trapping families in cycles of borrowing, with calls for stronger borrower protection and more social support for mental health impacts. Health financing & local production: Health minister Esperance Luvindao argued public healthcare needs new revenue ideas and stronger domestic capacity for medicines and health products. Cuba solidarity: Namibia’s National Council donated N$27,609 to the Namibia-Cuba Solidarity Campaign for medicines, medical supplies, and solar kits. Agriculture monitoring contract ended: Namibia terminated a $2.4m AI crop monitoring deal with U.S. firm 6th Grain over legal and procedural concerns. Power outage planning: Erongo Red scheduled outages affecting Swakopmund, Walvis Bay, and nearby areas, including parts of Swakopmund State Hospital and Welwitschia Hospital.
