The ONA framework aims to promote trade, investment, mobility, and digital inclusion within the SADC region. In 2024, Botswana and Namibia were the first SADC members to implement reduced roaming rates, a significant step towards enhancing connectivity among member states. This initiative has led to price reductions for roaming charges ranging from 10% to 98.6% for data, voice, and SMS services, benefiting approximately 417 million people in the telecommunications sector across the SADC region.
