STATISTICIAN–GENERAL NAMIBIA STATISTICS AGENCY d) Administrative Boundaries At the time when the 2011 census was conducted Namibia had 13 regions and 107 constituencies. These are the first level and second level administrative units in Namibia. In 2013 there were several changes made to these administrative boundaries. For instance, the Kavango region was divided into two regions – Kavango East and Kavango West. Moreover, several new constituencies were created. Among the regions only Erongo and Omaheke experienced no change in constituencies between 2001 and 2013. These changes DR.administrative JOHN STEYTLER in boundaries created challenges for producing population projections as per the new STATISTICIAN–GENERAL boundaries. More precise geospatial information is required about these boundary changes before reliable NAMIBIA STATISTICS population projectionsAGENCY can be provided for Kavango’s newly divided regions and for its constituencies. e) Assumptions of population projections Census a Population Projections 2011 to 2041 ThisNamibia section2011 highlights summary on assumptions for population projections. More details are to appear in i the methodology section in the appendix. i The base population was adjusted upward due to the assumed tendency of underreporting of children onboth national and sub-national levels. Moreover, the census population was backdated from the reference time of the census (August 28, 2011) to midyear (July 1, 2011). Thus, as a result, the mid-year population is (2.116 million), higher than the census count (2.113 million).

First, since children are often production of this report. I hope that the findings in this report will be turned into practice in order to undercounted in censuses, the national population under the age of 10 was adjusted upwards to be DR. JOHN STEYTLER ensure that our national development issues are addressed productively. consistent with assumed fertility and mortality. The upward adjustment increased the population STATISTICIAN–GENERAL at 0-4 by 3.5 percent for males and 0.8 percent for females and at 5-9 by 2.4 percent for males NAMIBIA STATISTICS AGENCY (there was no adjusted indicated for females at this age). The tendency to undercount children was assumed to be the same throughout all sub-national areas. Second, populations were backdated from the time of the census date (August 28, 2011) to the mid-year (July 1, 2011). ii. Mortality Death rates at most ages were calculated by dividing the deaths reported in the 2011 census DR. JOHN STEYTLER (referring to the preceding year) by age and sex by the corresponding population enumerated in the STATISTICIAN–GENERAL census. At older ages however, indirect methods based on model life tables suggested that death NAMIBIA STATISTICS AGENCY rates were underreported. Thus, at older ages the death rates indicated from a model life table were used instead (NSA, 2014b). Death rates by age can be translated each year into a summary measure of survival chances – years of life expectancy at birth – by using a life table. To project mortality into the future in each area life expectancy at birth by sex was assumed to follow a fixed logistic pattern of improvement in line with world historical trends. Thus, life expectancy (for both sexes combined) Namibia 2011 Census Population Projections 2011 to 2041 was projected to increase by almost 11 years for men and almost 12 years for females between 2011 i and 2041. The projections software uses projected life expectancies at birth to adjust the original age-specific mortality rate pattern estimated for 2011. iii. i Fertility The age pattern of fertility was drawn from the 2011 census (reported births to women at childbearing ages during the year before the census divided by women at that age group).

Cohorts in sub-national areas in 2001 were then YCNEGA SCITSITATS AIBIMAN subjected to the survival probabilities estimated for the population as a whole from 2001-2011 to estimate an expected sub-national count in 2011 at each age and sex group. Any discrepancy between the expected counts and the actual counts in the 2011 census is attributed to net migration (those under age 10 in 2011 had not been born in 2011, so net migration under age 10 was set to zero). The projections use these resulting estimates of annual net migration by age and sex, which are assumed to remain constant from 2011 to 2041. DR. JOHN STEYTLER Net migration estimates varied widely at sub-national level. For instance, annual net migration from STATISTICIAN–GENERAL rural to urban areas was estimated to be almost 20 thousand per year (Tables 2.1 and 2.3).
