  • Toyota Kalahari Botswana 1000 Desert Race Launch
    TOYOTA KALAHARI BOTSWANA 1000 DESERT RACE LAUNCH December 12th, Selebi Phikwe, Botswana Official announcement of the new home of the Toyota 1000 Desert Race, which will take place in the Selebi Phikwe area for the next three years, subject to renewal. Botswana has been home to the Toyota 1000 Desert Race since 1991 traversing thousands of kilometres in several areas including Gaborone, Mantshwabisi, Lentsweletau, Hatsalatladi and Kumakwane with last stop being Jwaneng. The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) requires the race area to be changed every five years, which necessitates the need to look for alternative areas. The relocation of the host venue also provides continued interest in the event and new challenging terrain for competitors which is in line with building a sustainable future for the race, attracting new entrants and retaining the loyal competitors. Various areas which could potentially host from 2019 onwards were assessed. The Selebi-Phikwe region was selected as the most suitable, as it offers the most relevant race requirements and infrastructure required for the success of this marathon event. The choice for Phikwe was further influenced by a bid from SPEDU and the Selebi-Phikwe Town Council to host the event, which satisfied the requirements of all the host partners. The project area has been determined and the preliminary route identified will be finalized in due course. Today a memorandum of agreement that guides the role of the various parties responsible for the event was signed, charting the way forward in terms of the roles played by each member of the organising team. This event attracts a large number of spectators from all over Botswana, as well as a growing number from Southern African countries and abroad, therefore, most hotels in host towns and surrounding villages usually report a substantial increase in business during the race.

Prior to this, the office compiled two editions of Botswana Environment Statistics in 2000 and 2006 respectively, in which Water Resource Chapter was included. The publication has been necessitated by the global recognition of the need to incorporate considerations for the sustainable use of safe water in the socio-economic development planning process so as to ensure that the socio- economic development achieved is also sustainable. The CSO did not conduct any survey to come up with data presented in this publication, rather the department used secondary data collected from various government departments, ministries, parastatal organizations, private companies and NGOs. Data in tables whose source(s) is (are) not indicated are from other Central Statistics Publications. Data was collected from Water Utilities Corporation, Ministry of Local Government, Department of Water Affairs, different District Councils across the country and publications such as ‘Botswana National Water Master Plan 2004’ and ‘Inventory of Wetlands in Botswana’. The Pressure-State-Response Model was used in preparing this publication. It was not possible to get the required data on all the variables that were necessary for the analysis and/or monitoring of the sustainable use of water resources and impact of anthropogenic activities on water sources.
