UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: The Ministry of Health today announced that Government is in the process of enacting the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) Bill, which aims to ensure all Namibians can access essential health services without financial hardship.

The Bill builds on the National UHC Policy (2025) and supports ongoing health financing reforms, including the National Health Equity Fund and the National Health Micro-Contribution.

The Ministry has invited stakeholders and members of the public to submit inputs and comments on the Bill as part of public consultations, with submissions closing on 27 February 2026.

Palliative Care Namibia and Cancer Association of Namibia recently had the great honour to welcome Her Excellency, Madam Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, President of Namibia, for a courtesy visit to House Zietsman Care Facility of Palliative Care Namibia.

We were very honoured to show Mee Nandi-Ndaitwah ("Mother President of Namibia" as we felt her energy) our facilities, explaining what our palliative and rehabilitation and hospice services entail.

We are proud that our President gave her stamp of approval and encouraged our team to continue with the mission embarked on.

Together we CAN impact lives and work toward access to compassionate palliative care for all - including state patients 🙏
