    2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS Kavango Regional Profile Basic Analysis with Highlights February 2014 Content Foreword The first Population and Housing Census in an independent Namibia was conducted in 1991. Since then, a Census has been undertaken every ten years, and the 2011 Population and Housing Census marks Namibia’s third census since independence in 1990. The Census is demonstrative of the Namibia Statistics Agency’s (NSA) commitment to providing relevant and quality statistics to support decision making, policy formulation and monitoring of development programmes. This regional profile presents the result of the 2011 Namibia Population and Housing Census for the Kavango Region. The report provides a wide range of indicators on population characteristics, household and housing conditions and households enumerated in the region between 28 August and 15 September 2011. The report further provides detailed information on age and sex composition, marital status, education, literacy, economic activity, orphan-hood, fertility and disability. In addition, household size, housing amenities, ownership and the quality of housing are also presented in this report. All these indicators are provided at regional, urban/rural and constituency level. It should be noted that internal migration was not possible to calculate at constituency level. However it was provided at regional level in the 2011 main census report launched on 27 March 2013, as well as in the Population Atlas released in June 2013. This regional profile is the fourth in a series of reports to be released based on the 2011 census data. The first report - released in April 2012 - disseminated provisional results on the distribution of the population.

  • National Voters Register 2014
    National Voters Register 2014 @ 7 November 2014 Introduction The Electoral Commission of Namibia (ECN) conducted a Supplementary Registration of Voters (SRV) in preparation of the Presidential and National Assembly elections that will be held on 28 November 2014. The same process that was used during the GRV was employed to register voters during the SRV period of 8 to 20 September 2014. The exercise used the biometric Voter Registration Kits (VRKs) deployed by over 700 teams throughout the country and a further 29 points at embassies and consulates around the world. The VRKs collect the data in the field, and this data was then transferred to the central server for processing. This processing includes searching for duplicates through ID and fingerprint matching. National Voters Register 2014 The National Voters Register 2014 has been prepared and the Constituency copies are available within each constituency in the country. The total number of voters are 1,241,194. National GRV Final 1,161,383 @ 7 September after removals 1,159,091 Objections - Supplementary registered 118,487 Provisional Register 1,277,578 Duplicates removed (Corrections, litigations, deaths) 36,384 Total for PE & NA Register 1,241,194 The table above shows the numbers of registrations during the Supplementary Registration of Voters, the number of removals (due to corrections, deaths, etc.) and the final voters register total.
