AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Education & Health Tech: Namibian students at the National Science Fair showcased practical projects—from a solar-powered recycled-material math game to sensor-based irrigation systems—turning everyday classroom and community problems into solutions. Mental Health & Suicide Prevention: Police reported 486 suicide cases in 2025/26, with President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah urging open conversations, especially for men and boys, and calling for stigma-free support alongside the newly passed Mental Health Bill. Healthcare Access Upgrade: Namibia inaugurated its first state-owned MRI machine at Windhoek Central Hospital, with plans to install a second unit in Oshakati to cut referrals and travel costs. Disability Services: The Ministry launched a standardised digital disability assessment system to reduce delays, travel, and inconsistent decisions, using WHO functionality tools. HIV Funding & Data Dispute: Namibia rejected US demands for health data and pathogen sharing during HIV programme talks; the US says it will phase out $45m support after 2027. Medical Aid Regulation: NHP clarified how FIMA affects claims assessment for medical aid funds, stressing cover won’t change immediately and members should use official updates. Community Nutrition: In Kavango East, a mother started a soup kitchen feeding 240 children twice weekly after receiving support from Orange Babies Namibia.
