Independence brought to an end one of the most intractable and wasteful conflicts in the region. With independence, the people of Namibia not only gained political freedom, but set out on the challenging task of building a nation and defining their relations with the world. From the perspective of mediation, the role of the international community in bringing about Namibia's independence in general, and that of the United Nations in particular, was of a deep structural nature.

    Namibia, Botswana & Victoria Falls Private 4th to 22nd July 2017 (19 days) Trip Report Cheetah by Wayne Jones Trip report compiled by Tour Leader, Wayne Jones Trip Report – Nambia, Botswana & Victoria Falls - Private 2017 2 Tour Summary Our Namibia/Botswana/Zambia tour is one of our most popular trips; and, with excellent lodgings, good infrastructure and fabulous bird and wildlife viewing, it is well-suited to a family visit. We recorded 360 bird and 44 mammal species during our 19-day journey from the highlands of Windhoek to the lush banks of the Zambezi, with desert, savanna and wetlands in between. ________________________________________________________________________________ We officially kicked off our birding with a late afternoon visit to Avis Dam, on the outskirts of the Namibian capital. The area was so thick with different species that we didn’t even complete a quarter of the route before the sun dipped behind the Auas Mountains. It started with a tree full of waxbills – Blue, Violet-eared, Black-faced and Common. Our list soon included Green-winged Pytilia, Red-headed Finch, Scaly-feathered Weaver, Chestnut-vented Warbler, Scarlet- chested and Marico Sunbirds, Black-chested Prinia, Yellow-bellied Eremomela, Acacia Pied Barbet, Pririt Batis, Crimson-breasted Shrike, Brown-crowned Tchagra, Bearded and Cardinal Woodpecker, Lark-like Bunting, White-backed Mousebird and a Pearl-spotted Owlet. On a repeat visit the next morning, we had just climbed out of the car when a pair of Orange River Francolins starting calling, eventually allowing us excellent looks. Our other major quarry was Quailfinch. After spotting several flying specks, we finally found a female on the ground where she sat Acacia Pied Barbet by Wayne Jones for a couple of minutes.

  • 10 Existing Water Use
    Chapter10 Existing Water Use CHAPTER 10 EXISTING WATER USE 10.1 Current Water Use and Supply Systems 10.1.1 Villages Village centres are supplied with water by Namwater, and are called “Bulk Customer” and operate on a contract basis with a memorandum of agreement being exchanged. Village councils are responsible for the operation and maintenance of the feeder pipeline network as well as water supply in the villages. To maintain the facilities water fees from N$2.35 to N$2.96 /m3 are charged to beneficiaries which are composed of village centers, commercial farms and communal land which operate irrigation, livestock and tourism activities (refer to Table 10.1-1 and Chapter 9). However, it is reported that the fee collection ratio is not 100 %. Using the latest monthly abstraction data in the eight village centres, the total water use volume of about 562,000 m3/year is estimated in Table 10.1-2.

TELEX: 205662 SAP UR FACSIMILE: (202) 842-3211 THIS WEEK IN NAMIBIA Week of January 14 - 21, 1990 (A report filed by the Lawyers' Commit~ee for Civil Rights Southern Africa Project staff in Namibia) 1. constituent Assembly: The Constituent Assembly's Standing Committee on Rules and Orders reportedly has reached an agreement on the final constitutional draft to be tabled in the full Assembly later this week. Full Assembly deliberations on the draft - originally scheduled for last Friday - were postponed when disagreement arose over the provisions for the powers of the President and the nature of the legislature, among other issues. The reasons for the delay are unclear. Reportedly, the Committee was dissatisfied 7ith the draft prepared by the three South African lawyers acting on the Committee's instructions. But, one local newspaper attributes the delay mainly to the Committee's failure "to clear up relevant issues the first time around." Whatever the cause, SWAPO reportedly felt, for example, that too many limitations had been placed on the powers of the President, while DTA members argued that the second "House of Review" (HOR) was toothless and the mechanism and timetable for its formation unclear. Questions were also raised regarding the usefulness of the separate constitutional division of the judiciary, on the grounds that a separation between constitu­ tional and non-constitutional matters was specious and that such a separate division, entrusted with powers over the Supreme Court and Appellate divisions, risked threatening the independence of the judiciary.
