AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Mental Health Bill Push: Namibia’s MPs want better infrastructure around mental health hospitals and more fully qualified psychologists, warning that only a couple of facilities are overcrowded and that care must shift from custodial to support and rehabilitation. Labour Rights Under Strain: A parliamentary committee calls for stronger labour law enforcement and better-resourced institutions, with Erongo unions reporting workplace inspections are being hampered by shortages of inspectors, vehicles and funding—raising occupational health and safety concerns. Weight-loss Medicine Safety Alert: Namibia’s medicines regulator warns against unregistered injectable weight-loss products sold online and informally, saying they may be counterfeit, contaminated, or the wrong strength, and urges consumers to be cautious of “rapid results” marketing. Worker Debt Pressure: A parliamentary probe hears claims that some public servants allegedly adjust working hours to avoid unregistered lenders, and MPs suggest financial counselling before loans are approved. Community Mental Health Through Sport: One Economy Foundation’s “Game Changers” event in Windhoek pairs fun runs with talks on mental health, sexual and reproductive health, and GBV prevention. Public Health & Safety Incident: A 78-year-old man died after falling into an open hole near Henties Bay Clinic; police investigations are ongoing. Water Security Focus: A feature highlights Africa’s water stress and the need for safe sanitation and resilient water systems to protect health and livelihoods. Cuba Solidarity & Health System Mention: Namibia’s leaders and supporters mark Fidel Castro’s centenary, reiterating solidarity with Cuba and pointing to Cuba’s free healthcare model as part of the legacy.
