With the vision to boost Namibia's economy and uplift the tourism sector, Miss World Namibia 2025, Selma Kamanya, is driving "Global Namibia One" to do just that. 

Former Miss Namibia and Miss Universe 1992, Michelle McLean-Bailey, was named as the Top Global Business Woman of the Year in Tourism Investment.

McLean-Bailey was honoured by the International Association of Top Professionals in Las Vegas, United States, on Saturday.

The international beauty queens who were in Namibia on the initiative of Miss World Namibia's Selma Kamanya's Global Namibia 1 project concluded a successful ten-day tour of Namibia.

The aim was to explore and promote the country's tourism on the world stage.

Germany remains in the top spot as the overseas destination from which tourists arrive in the country.

The 2024 Tourist Statistical Report launched by the Environment, Forestry and Tourism Minister Indileni Daniels shows that over 111,000 tourists arrived from Germany during that year.

The Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR) has resolved not to declare dividends this time around to improve service despite an increase in profit of up to 50%.

Crimes against tourists in the Erongo Region have seen an uptick of 26% between January and October this year, compared to the same period in 2024.

Namibia will host a three-day inaugural Aviation Week Africa next year. The initiative, launched in collaboration with Zambia, which is the birthplace of the concept, aims to promote sustainable growth and celebrate Africa's aviation sector.

The Erongo Business and Tourism Expo is underway in Walvis Bay, with the patron calling on organisers of similar events to include and sponsor local small and medium enterprises by providing them with free stalls.
