AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Water & Sanitation: PM Elijah Ngurare says Namibia is improving access but still faces drought pressure and ageing infrastructure; safe drinking water is at 91.4% nationally, yet some communities rely on weekly tankers due to saline or low-yield groundwater, while sanitation sits at 60% amid school/clinic delays. Child Protection: A new Namibia Child Care and Protection Statistics report shows girls face higher reported violence than boys over 2014–2023, with an annual average of 1,252 cases against girls versus 711 boys. Health System Upgrade: MoHSS is modernising community healthcare with a Digital Community System to record household visits electronically, speed referrals, and reduce lost records—rolling out in phases with offline support. Public Service & Health Link: Swakopmund hosted Africa Public Service Day focused on universal water and safe sanitation by 2063, tying governance to health and dignity. Workplace Wellness: Namibia’s fishing industry plans Oct 2026 Sports & Wellness Games with free screenings (BP, blood sugar, BMI, eye/hearing, HIV counselling) for shift workers. Safety & Health Risks: A fuel tanker fire after a collision near Swakopmund left the driver injured; both drivers were taken to hospital. Funding for Health & Wellness SMEs: NIPDB urges MSMEs to apply for the N$18m SME Fund before 24 July, prioritising youth- and women-owned businesses, including health and wellness sectors. Rural Energy & Land Rights: Coverage highlights how South Africa’s solar rollout must protect communal land rights and avoid repeating dispossession.
