The Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA) has called for stronger collaboration among all data producers and users to improve the country's statistical system.

The Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA) announced on Thursday that the country’s economy grew by 1.6% in real terms during the second quarter of 2025 (Q2 2025). This represents a slowdown compared to the 3.3% increase recorded in the same period in 2024.

The Namibia Housing Information System (NHIS) will enable municipalities and residents to be aware of land information in all fourteen regions of the country.

The regions are meeting for a five-day end-user refresher training and workshop programme for the deployment of the system.

Namibia's population has surpassed the three million mark.

This was announced by the Namibian Statistician General, Alex Shimuafeni, during the launch of the census preliminary report. 

The Census enumeration officially closes today, while the Post-Enumeration Survey will start on Monday.
