The Namibia National Front was an alliance of moderate parties in Namibia. It was formed in 1977 as a merger of the Namibia National Convention (which had been marginalized after SWAPO's departure from it) and the Namibia National Council.

At the time of its formation NNF consisted of the following groups:

• Damara Council
• Damara Executive Committee
• Federal Party
• South West African National Union
• Mbanderu Council
• Namibia Progressive Party
• Namibia Independence Party
• Voice of the People Party

In 1978 some groups left NNF to form Namibia People's Liberation Front.
