The Government of Namibia is using new and innovative methods and technologies to improve the business processes of the birth registration, ensuring timely and accurate registration of all children.
In partnership with the Ministry of Health and Social (MoHSS) and Office of the Prime Minister( OPM ), the Ministry of Home Affairs and Immigration designed and developed the e-birth notification system as an integral part of the National Population Registration System (NPRS). The aim is to notify the e-NPRS electronically when a birth has occurred at hospital to secure the birth details of the child, verify the identity of the mother, eliminate late registration of births and collect accurate data about all children’s birth in the country.
