Parliament of Namibia
The voice of Namibia
Free · Designed for iPad
The Parliament App is a mobile platform developed to bridge the gap between the Parliament of Namibia and its citizens. While the official website has long served as a source of information, there has been a growing need for a two-way communication channel—one that not only shares updates from Parliament but also allows the public to participate, voice their opinions, and engage with national matters.
This app was designed with inclusivity, transparency, and digital civic engagement in mind. Its ultimate goal is to foster a stronger relationship between government and citizens by promoting active public participation in democratic processes. Through this app, the Parliament aims to improve access to information, gather public feedback, and create a more interactive environment for national dialogue.
Core Objectives of the App
●Enable two-way communication between Parliament and citizens.
●Encourage civic engagement through surveys, petitions, and social features.
●Make Parliamentary information accessible in one central mobile platform.
●Allow digital submissions of issues, feedback, and documentation.
●Empower youth and remote communities by reducing barriers to participation.
