SUMMARY OF KEY FINDINGS
Category 1: Website analysis
•

•

•

Of the eight institutions surveyed, sixhave fully
functional websites. Two institutions have no
websites.
Six institutions have Facebook accounts, of which
three are also active on Twitter. In addition to social
media accounts, the Namibia Statistics Agency also
has YouTube, LinkedIn and Google Plus accounts.
The Electoral Commission of Namibia also has a
YouTube account.
Most of the information on the surveyed websites
were not dated, this made it difficultto determine
the exact date the information was uploaded.

Category 2: Requests for information
•

•

•

All institutions had designated official(s) for
information dissemination. The researcher had no
face-to-face interviews.
The majority of the institutions took their time
to respond. As in previous years, some did not
provide the information requested, although
they did acknowledge receipt of the request for
information.
The institutions most willing to assist were the
Ministry of Industrialisation, Trade and SME
Development (MTI) and the Communications
Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN).
