The Namibia Statistics Agency (NSA) on Wednesday launched the Marginalised Communities Report, compiled from the 2023 Population and Housing data.

Vice President Lucia Witbooi is calling on young people from indigenous communities to take advantage of the newly launched National Youth Fund.

She made the appeal while speaking in Tsumeb during the celebration of the International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples.

The Ministry of Gender Equality, Poverty Eradication, and Social Welfare (MGEPESW) is calling on some locals to stop using people from marginalised communities for cheap labour.

The Deputy Director of Marginalised Communities, Rebekka Namwandi, says the practice is inconsiderate and has to stop.
