The Communications
Regulatory Authority of Namibia (CRAN) is participating in the 44th
Administrative Council Technical Committee meetings of the Pan African Postal
Union (PAPU) in Entebbe, Uganda, ahead of the 11th Plenipotentiary Conference
scheduled for March 25–27, 2026.
The meetings have brought
together postal sector leaders, regulators, and policymakers from across Africa
to deliberate on the future of postal and e-commerce services. Key discussions
are focused on digital transformation, cross-border e-commerce, and promoting
financial inclusion through innovative postal solutions.
Namibia, which currently
serves on the Bureau of the Strategy Committee of the Administrative Council,
is actively contributing to policy discussions aimed at modernising the postal
sector and aligning with regional and global best practices.
As part of its continued
engagement, Namibia is also seeking re-election to the Administrative Council
for a second term, reaffirming its commitment to building a resilient,
inclusive, and digitally enabled postal ecosystem.
