National and international NGOs operating in Namibia recognise that the impacts of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic are likely to remain present throughout 2020 and potentially reach into 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic will have health, economic and social impacts the lives of staff, communities and government partners. While global COVID-19 infections continue, organisations must increase measures for preparedness, including assessing transmission risks during the course of work and potential direct impacts from the pandemic, and develop management plans for COVID19. Many rural communities depend heavily on the informal economy, and often have limited access to essential services, limited advocacy influence, and limited access to communications and technologies. They therefore have limited resilience to shocks from economic and health threats. Namibia has a comparatively low national population and low population density, with dispersed rural inhabitants and limited health services capacity. Hence, the benefits of geographic isolation for many rural communities must be balanced with likely increased essential service delivery needs due to the global economic slowdown, which may bring increased risks of exposure. It is therefore to essential to reduce exposure and transmission, by reducing travel, adhering to safety protocols, increasing remote working practices, and limiting direct interventions in communities. In order to mitigate the impacts and risks of the COVID-19 pandemic, NACSO Members agree to the following voluntary guidelines, alongside additional specific measures taken in our specific working environments.
