24 iii 1.0 Profiles of the NILALEG Project’s Focal Landscapes Namibia’s rural communities are highly reliant on the land and land-based resources within their vicinities for their livelihoods. Users access resources through the traditional authorities and community-based institutions. The resources base or abundance of the resources has been hindered by population pressure, overutilisation and illegal extractions. The resulting impacts of dwindling natural resources are further exacerbated by the threats of climatic changes that are particularly manifested through reoccurring droughts. The common uses of forested lands and forest-based resources in the Namibia Integrated Landscape Approach for the Enhancing Livelihoods and Environmental Governance to Eradicate Poverty (NILALEG) project’s focal landscapes include livestock farming; crop production; timber logging; gathering of edible and medicinal plants; firewood; cutting of poles for construction and harvesting of thatching grass. These users are geared towards both subsistence and commercial purposes. Groups of resources harvested and products from the forest resources are presented in the figure below. Figure 1: Groups of forest resources and their diverse uses There are five focal landscapes proposed for the NILALEG project: Omaoipanga Focal Landscape in the Kunene Region, Ruacana Focal Landscape in the Omusati Region, Okongo Focal Landscape in the Ohangwena Region, Nkulivere Focal Landscape in the Kavango West Region, and Zambezi Focal Landscape in the Zambezi Region. 1 1.1 Omaoipanga Focal Landscape 1.1.1 Focal landscape description The Omaoipanga Focal Landscape is in Opuwo Rural Constituency in the Kunene Region. It is inhabited by the Ovahimba people, one of the ethnic groups that have preserved their cultural heritage, but are also amongst the most marginalised groups in Namibia. They occupy a pristine and breath-taking landscape through which many tourist tour companies criss-cross while visiting Kunene north. The Ovahimba people in the Omaoipanga village are under the Vita Royal House Traditional Authority. There are 20 households with 4 people per household on average. Omaoipanga neighbours the villages of Okorosave, Ondole, Otjerunda, Kaokotavi and Orumana, which will form part of the broader focal landscape. These villages are also inhabited by the Ovahimba people, but also the Ovaherero and Ovazemba people. Figure 2: Omaoipanga Focal Landscape1 The Omaoipanga Focal Landscape occupies the driest areas and is part of the desert/shrub ecosystems characterised by low and sporadic rainfalls of approximately 100-200 mm per 1 Maps of all the focal landscapes courtesy of Axel Rothauge, 2018 2 annum, with temperatures of over 20 Celsius Degrees in the winter, and up to 36 Celsius Degrees in the summer. People in the focal landscape are predominantly pastoralists. They depend on livestock (both cattle and goats) for their livelihoods. Since hundreds of years, the farmers have led nomadic and transhumance practices as part of their strategies for rangeland management and responses to drought. These practices continue to be prevalent today and more so because of the climatic changes and reoccurring droughts and therefore it is a climate change resilience strategy. Livestock are predominantly owned and tended by young and old men. There can be one hundred (100) cattle in a kraal but this does not mean that they belong to one person. Some would belong to the head of the household and others to the members

  • Tribute to Rosalia Annette Nghidinwa 24Jan2018 Parliament
    TRIBUTE BY HIS EXCELLENCY, DR. SAM NUJOMA, FOUNDING PRESIDENT AND FATHER OF THE NAMIBIAN NATION, ON THE OCCASION OF THE STATE MEMORIAL AND FUNERAL SERVICES IN HONOUR OF THE LATE COMRADE ROSALIA ANNETTE NDILINASHO NGHIDINUA 24 JANUARY 2018 PARLIAMENT GARDENS KHOMAS REGION *Check Against Delivery 0 | Page Directors of Proceedings; Fellow Mourners: It is with profound sorrow that we are gathered here today to pay our last respect and homage to one of the gallant daughters and heroines of Namibia, the Late Comrade Rosalia Annette Ndilinasho Nghidinua. As we mourn her untimely passing on, let us at the same time celebrate her heroic deeds and outstanding contribution to the attainment of Namibia’s Freedom and genuine Independence, as well as to the building of the Namibian nation. The passing on of Comrade Rosalia Nghidinua has deeply saddened us all. As for me in particular, last time I saw her was in November last year in Walvis Bay when she paid me a courtesy visit. Nothing indicated that she was not well until I received a telephone call from one of her children telling me that she was admitted in hospital. In this regard, I recall her as a caring mother and dedicated nurse who always has her people at heart as well as one of the SWAPO Party cadres who can be trusted at all times. Comrade Nghidinua joined SWAPO in 1974. She became SWAPO’s intelligence operative in 1981, under the People’s Liberation Army of Namibia (PLAN), SWAPO’s Military Wing. She was recruited and trained by PLAN Regional Commander Akushinda Kalomoh and first worked under PLAN Company Commander, the Late Comrade Festus Nujoma “Omuthemba Gwokonayena” who later sacrificed in one of the fiercest battles in the Eastern Front.
