By June 2019, it presented its first draft to stakeholders and donors for validation.<\/p>\n<p>Kashikola said during the validation process, several comments and inputs were collected, which comments and inputs were accordingly incorporated into the policy.<\/p>\n<p>The policy identified the gaps and proposed strategies which will be employed to enable the country to manage migration better, and even use it to advance its developmental goals.<\/p>\n<p>The policy also has a five-year action plan with activities and estimated budgets, hence the need for N$140 million for its implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the politician noted that the continued support of different development partners will be required to ensure success.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
