It can take many forms. It is usually described as a package of objects, places and activities which are seen to reflect the values and beliefs that a family, community or nation wish to pass on to future generations. Yet, society changes over time and the way in which the selection of particular events, personalities, skills or places that are branded as `Heritage’ are remembered and perceived can also change. The `Past, Present and Future of Namibian Heritage’ Conference seeks to provide some time and space for us to exchange opinions. We want to learn HERITAGE lessons from the Past, review our Present practices and plan for the Future. /ˈhɛrɪtɪdʒ/ Participants in this Conference will have many different views, but we believe that by listening and learning from each other we will, together, build a noun common vision. noun: heritage; plural noun: heritages 1.

In 1884 Germany proclaimed a Protectorate over the Coast south of the Cape Colony's enclave at Walvis Bay and some years later, before 1890, expanded its territorial claims in South West Africa, without systematically establishing an effective administration on the ground. The United Kingdom decided to accept Germany's territorial claims in South West Africa, even though it regarded this territory as lying within Britain's natural sphere of influence. 2. The only area in dispute was Ngamiland, north of British Bechuana- land, a territory assigned to neither power and extending from the 20th to the 24th degree of longitude. Discussions began in 1886 but it was only in 1890 after the resignation of the German Chancellor Otto von Bis- marck that the new Chancellor, General Georg Leo Von Caprivi and his Foreign Minister, Baron Marschall, accelerated diplomatic discussions with Britain over Africa.

  • Conflict Management in Salambala Conservancy, Namibia
    CASE STUDY 1 Who will benefit from tourism and wildlife management? Conflict management in Salambala Conservancy, Namibia By C. Murphy, with D. Nheta-Manungo and E. Mwilima Edited by A.P. Castro SUMMARY Sikanjabuka is a small rural community in Caprivi region in northeastern Namibia. Along with 17 other Caprivi villages, it is a member of Salambala Conservancy, an innovative, participatory institution that allows communities to pool their land to co-manage wildlife and other natural resources and to secure concessionary rights for tourism enterprises. A conservancy aims to foster sustainable resource management and promote local socio-economic development through decentralization, thus reversing colonial and apartheid-era policies that marginalized rural people. Namibia’s national conservancy programme, carried out in collaboration with NGOs and international donors, has had much success. One of its hallmarks has been the attention it pays to institutional capacity building. Before it is officially registered, each conservancy must meet legal requirements, including electing a management committee, establishing a constitution, and formulating natural resource management plans and a strategy for the equitable distribution of benefits. Salambala was the second conservancy set up in Namibia (in 1998), and is cited internationally as a success story. It has not been without conflict, however. Bukalo Khuta, the traditional authority in this area, ordered Salambala Conservancy to stop benefit payments to the village of Sikanjabuka. Although the khuta has no right to interfere in the conservancy’s affairs, traditional authorities are NEGOTIATION AND MEDIATION TECHNIQUES FOR NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT • CASE STUDIES AND LESSONS LEARNED 14 very powerful and have been involved with Salambala since its foundation.

Finally, the study carries out a democratic audit of Namibia using Swedish normative tools. 1 Acknowledgements The last few years have been tumultuous but exciting. Now, the academic atmosphere that provided a valuable anchor, too, must be hauled up for journeys beyond. The end of this most enjoyable academic challenge has arrived, but I cannot look back without a sense of loss - loss of continuous joys of discovery and academic enrichment. I would like to thank my supervisor, Lionel Cliffe, for his incredible support. In addition to going through many drafts and making valuable suggestions, Lionel helped me endure this long journey with his sustained encouragement. I also thank Ray Bush for going through many drafts and making valuable comments. He has an uncanny ability to visualize the final outcome of research effort.

  • Motivated Identity Construction in a Cultural
    MOTIVATED IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION IN A CULTURAL CONTEXT MARIANA MARTIN FEBRUARY 2014 i MOTIVATED IDENTITY CONSTRUCTION IN A CULTURAL CONTEXT A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS (CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY) OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NAMIBIA BY MARIANA MARTIN FEBRUARY 2014 SUPERVISOR: DR ARMAS E. E. SHIKONGO ii ABSTRACT The present study investigated the concept of motivated identity construction, using a sample of 104 participants who were recruited through convenient sampling. The following motives were selected: self-esteem, continuity, belonging, efficacy, distinctiveness and meaning. These were the motives that previous studies found to be centrally involved in the process of identity construction. The key role of culture in identity construction was also critically investigated. The study used a quantitative approach and employed an already existing questionnaire for data collection. The participants‘ cultural orientation towards individualism/ collectivism was determined by measuring their beliefs about personhood and their degree of religiosity. The data was analysed using independent-samples t-tests and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The study found statistically significant differences between males and females in relation to the motive of efficacy. In terms of age, the study also found a statistically significant difference between the participants who were below 18 years of age and those who were at least 18 years of age when the two age groups were compared in relation to the meaning motive. However, the magnitude of the differences in the means was small. The study did not find any statistically significant differences in relation to the following motives: belonging, continuity, distinctiveness, efficacy, meaning and positive self-esteem between the various cultural groupings compared.
