The total area of the Focal Landscape is 219,513 ha. The landscape is fairly flat and parts of it are prone to flooding during the wet season.

WATS Investment cc is the Consortium responsible for overseeing the implementation of the landscape activities in this Focal Landscape. 1.3 Population and demographics The population in the Zambezi Focal Landscape has been calculated from the 2011 cen- sus data, using the NSA’s disaggregated figure for the exact area of the focal landscape (7,213 people) (NSA 2021 pers. comm.) and applying to this the annual growth rate of 1.3% for the Region (NSA 2012).

Migration Report.Pdf
Namibia 2011 Census MIGRATION REPORT Namibia Statistics Agency 2015 January 2015 MISSION STATEMENT “In a coordinated manner produce and disseminate relevant, quality and timely statistics that are fit-for- purpose in accordance with international standards and best practice” VISION STATEMENT “Be a high performance institution in statistics delivery” CORE VALUES Performance Integrity Service focus Transparency Accuracy Partnership Namibia 2011 Census Migration Report Foreword FOREWORD Migration report is one series of reports that were produced by the Namibia Statistics Agency based on data from the 2011 Namibia Population and Housing census. Migration is a powerful driver of population change and can have important consequence of economic, political and social changes. Because of its great impact on societies, migration needs to be adequately measured and understood. Reliable statistical data is the key to the basic understanding of this important demographic phenomenon. Yet in many countries, including Na- mibia, statistics on migration are incomplete, out-of-date or do not exist. Improvement in this area requires knowledge of the principles of collecting, compiling and analysing migration statistics. Migration is one of the three factors that affect population size of a particular geographic area, the other factors are fertility and- mor tality. Analytical reports on the situations of fertility and mortality are presented in separate reports which were released in 2014. The migration report provides information on internal and international migration covering both lifetime and short term migrants based on 2011 census data. Thus, report presents evidences on the migration patterns in Namibia to assist policy makers, planners and researchers in the formulation of national development programmes, as well as monitoring and evaluating implementation of national pro- grams. -
