  • Supplementary Registration of Voters of Registration Supplementary
    Electoral Commission of Namibia For free, fair and credible elections SUPPLEMENTARY REGISTRATION OF VOTERS 08 – 20 SEPTEMBER 2014 Toll free no: 081 9362 2 Message of ECN Director Register and Let Your Voice be Heard am greatly honored to inform the Namibian Electorate that the Electoral Commission of I Namibia will be conducting Supplementary Registration of Voters in all constituencies of the country from 8 – 20 September 2014. The Registration of Voters will take place at various registration points nationwide and starts from 08H00 in the morning to 19H00 in the evening, Monday to Saturday. No registration shall be done on any Sunday. The Supplementary registration of voters will be conducted for the Presidential and National Assembly Elections. This is to ensure that all eligible persons are registered and are in possession of voters’ cards in order to partake in the upcoming Presidential and National Assembly elections. An efficient voter registration system requires the population to be active in reporting changes of residency and other relevant aspects of their civil status. The Supplementary registration will thus give an opportunity to all citizens that were not able to register during the General Registration of Voters , as well as eligible voters that just turned 18 years to register to vote. The Supplementary registration will also record changes in residency and correct any errors on the electorates’ current registration cards. The Supplementary Registration of Voters is intended to ensure that all eligible citizens can exercise their right to vote during upcoming elections. Registration of voters outside Namibia Amendments made to the Electoral Act in 2009 permits the Electoral Commission of Professor Paul John Isaak Namibia to establish temporary registration points outside Namibia.

  • Proposal for Namibia (1)
    AFB/PPRC.21/20 26 September 2017 Adaptation Fund Board Project and Programme Review Committee Twenty-First Meeting Bonn, Germany, 10-11 October 2017 Agenda Item 6 p) PROPOSAL FOR NAMIBIA (1) AFB/PPRC.21/20 Background 1. The Operational Policies and Guidelines (OPG) for Parties to Access Resources from the Adaptation Fund (the Fund), adopted by the Adaptation Fund Board (the Board), state in paragraph 45 that regular adaptation project and programme proposals, i.e. those that request funding exceeding US$ 1 million, would undergo either a one-step, or a two-step approval process. In case of the one-step process, the proponent would directly submit a fully-developed project proposal. In the two-step process, the proponent would first submit a brief project concept, which would be reviewed by the Project and Programme Review Committee (PPRC) and would have to receive the endorsement of the Board. In the second step, the fully- developed project/programme document would be reviewed by the PPRC, and would ultimately require the Board’s approval. 2. The Templates approved by the Board (OPG, Annex 4) do not include a separate template for project and programme concepts but provide that these are to be submitted using the project and programme proposal template. The section on Adaptation Fund Project Review Criteria states: For regular projects using the two-step approval process, only the first four criteria will be applied when reviewing the 1st step for regular project concept. In addition, the information provided in the 1st step approval process with respect to the review criteria for the regular project concept could be less detailed than the information in the request for approval template submitted at the 2nd step approval process.

  • Social Responsibility Report
    Telecom Namibia Annual Report 2005/2006 Social Responsibility Report For Telecom Namibia, the concept of social responsibility is not limited to a concern with welfare schemes, charitable giving or the occasional support for Health, Education, Sports, and the Arts. Rather, the company perceives and positions itself as an integral part of society, which must be socially responsible at all times towards our customers, our employees, the environment and society. This is both because it’s the right thing to do and, if applied correctly, good business. Our commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) provides a guiding framework for all our management responsibilities and we focus particularly on striving for industry best practice standards in environment, health & safety, and in social performance. This must, however, be understood in the context of the company’s priority obligation to be a successful business enterprise, fi rst choice employer and communications customers’ fi rst choice, thus making itself stronger and able to fulfi ll its obligations to society. Telecom MD Frans Ndoroma Community Support with Cllr. Matty Ndjoze of the Otjombinde Constituency. Telecom Namibia’s policy is not just to deliver profi ts but also to make a positive difference to the well-being of local communities in which it operates and to invest in the future of all Namibians. In 2005/06, we spent more than N$4.2 million on community sponsorship programmes, spread over the following categories: Education SchoolNet Namibia was the biggest benefi ciary of CSR aid with Telecom Namibia contributing N$2 million to its operations in 2006. Together with SchoolNet Namibia, Telecom Namibia is a founder member of Xnet Development Alliance Trust, which aims to expedite Internet access and its use to the education, health and development sectors of Namibia.
