Namibia advances AI and digitisation policies to modernise public service The Namibian government has begun developing artificial intelligence (AI) and digitisation policies aimed at modernising public service delivery, reducing administrative inefficiencies and expanding access to government services. Prime Minister Elijah Ngurare said the policy development process forms part of efforts to integrate emerging technologies into government operations while strengthening local technological capacity and protecting national interests. Speaking at the 16th Institute of People Management (IPM) Namibia Annual Conference, Ngurare said the public service had already initiated work on digitisation and AI policies to guide the adoption of digital technologies across government institutions. He said the government needed to move away from traditional paper-based administrative systems towards digital platforms that would allow citizens to access services without having to travel long distances to government offices. technews.com.na/2026/10/15/n… #namibia #ai #digitalisation #technology #publicservice @NamibiaOPM @ngurare @ipm_namibia @TechCrunch @TechCentral
