The Namibian Statistics Agency (NSA), in partnership with local law enforcement, is in full swing with preparations for the 2023 Population and Housing Census, as most of the processes have been concluded and all systems are ready for the action phase to commence.

The Namibian government has committed more than N$700 million towards the 2023 Population and Housing Census.

Census field work will be conducted from September 18 to November 3, 2023. This time span will include the enumeration as well as the Post-Enumeration Survey (PES).

President Hage Geingob has called on all Namibians to play their part in the upcoming census.

Geingob made the call during the launch of the 2023 Population and Housing Census held at Statehouse.

The United Nations (UN) Resident Coordinator in Namibia, Hopolang Phororo, says the body's partnership framework is aligned with Namibia's 6th National Development Plan.

Hopolang Phororo said this during a courtesy call to the nbc's headquarter in Windhoek.
