NamWater meets with stakeholders

NamWater, in partnership with the agriculture, water and land reform ministry, this week hosted a stakeholder engagement session in Ondangwa, Oshana Region, for the pilot project on the optimisation of the retail water supply process – Okashandja–Olweege Branchline. The session brought together key stakeholders, including government officials, traditional leaders, water consumers and technology partners, to deliberate on modernising Namibia’s water supply system.

NamWater CEO Abraham Nehemia, highlighted the historical challenges in water supply management, stating that:



“Water supply in north-western Namibia has evolved significantly, but challenges such as non-payment, inefficient billing, and infrastructure constraints persist. This pilot project aims to integrate smart technologies to improve service delivery, ensure financial sustainability, and promote responsible water use.”
