At first it was called Namibia and Southern Africa Refugee Project. The Project was funded by a large variety of donors through its own efforts. It was committed, from its inception, to help create and maintain an infrastructure, especially with regard to training and education, in Kwanza Sul, Nyango and other SWAPO settlement camps in Angola and Zambia. By 1982 the NRP was running the SWAPO Women’s Council Literacy Campaign; a few years later the projects included skills training in shoe-making, construction, stove-making, carpentry, tailoring, and management. Furthermore, the NRP involved itself strongly in facilitating study and training opportunities for Namibian students elsewhere. It also played an active role in the worldwide solidarity movement in support of the Namibian liberation struggle. However, it seems that throughout the 1980s its main focus was organising and facilitating the teaching of reading and writing to Namibian refugees. The NRP dissolved itself shortly after the independence of Namibia in 1990. The records and their description The bulk of the archives of the NRP were donated to the National Archives of Namibia in 1992 by the University of York, who had held the records for about two years; some additional documentation was transferred in 1994. The records provide detailed insights into life in and the administration of the refugee settlements, but they also document the setting up, role, function and effects of international solidarity with SWAPO. Another aspect of the records is that they represent a general resource base on literacy and skills training, because the Refugee Project also collected data and materials from elsewhere in the world. Generally, the records reflect many aspects of the difficulties and achievements of Namibians in exile. At the broadest level, the archives were divided in three groups: unpublished, published, and audiovisual. The published materials were separated and transferred to the National Archives library. A listing is included in Box 47. The audiovisual materials were listed and packed separately; about 200 photos were fully identified and included in the National Archives image library. The unpublished records were divided into correspondence and so-called “other archives” (non-correspondence), and then again into 15 sub-categories. Substantial assistance was rendered by Justin Ellis and Marion Wallace, both closely associated with the Project, but the principle of original order could not be followed and the arrangement has in some measure remained arbitrary. Nonetheless, it is hoped that the study of these archives will prove useful in the project of writing Namibia’s history. iv Findaid 2/55 Namibia Refugee Project A.0555 Brigitte Lau Chief Archivist March 1996 v Findaid 2/55 Namibia Refugee Project A.0555 About the second edition A new edition of this finding aid was prompted by the detailed registration of individual files of the Accession A.0555 on the ACCPT database. At the same time several other changes were carried out: • The annual reports and other central documents of NRP and the “bulletin board”, which inexplicably had not been assigned file and box numbers in the first edition, were added at the end of the series and listed in more detail. (Box 50-55) • Several documents which had been taken into the Archives Library without being publications in the true sense, were re-transferred to this Accession (Box 49). • The items transferred to the Library, which had meanwhile been re-catalogued and mostly changed shelf numbers, were newly listed, and a list of the catalogued photos added. It is hoped that the indexing of the NRP material on the ACCPT database, which also provided additional keyword access points to the records, will lead to increased use of this very important resource, in particular as there are currently still very few accessible archival sources about the SWAPO camps in exile. This accession still warrants some additional future work in the recording and indexing of the “bulletin board” with its sources on the 1989 independence process, and the identification and cataloguing of further photos and slides. It should be noted that the Namibia Refugee Project’s colour slides are still uncatalogued. The ACCPT database (Private Accessions – component parts) is available like all other databases on the Reading Room computers.

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.

  • Swapo and the Churches: an International Scandal
    SWAPO AND THE CHURCHES: AN INTERNATIONAL SCANDAL Paul Trewhela 'Swapo has the right to protect her people from those who are collaborating with the enemy...Yours in Jesus Christ.' — Dr Abisai Shejavali, General Secretary of the Council of Churches in Namibia. The illegal occupation of Namibia has been facilitated by Namibians who have collaborated with South Africa and have been traitors to the cause of a free Namibia. Yet SWAPO is willing to accommodate these people in a free Namibia and forgive their misguided behaviour.' — Report of the World Council of Churches, May 1988. 'So it goes' — Kurt Vonnegut, Slaughterhouse-Five. The Problems of the Text On 14 November 1989, Pluto Press published Church and Liberation in Namibia (CALIN), edited by Peter Katjavivi, Per Frostin and Kaire Mbuende. The book contains a number of documents on the relation between the churches and political conditions in Namibia, from 1958 to 1988, with individual essays by each of the editors and three others. David Theo Goldberg, assistant professor at the School of Justice Studies at Arizona State University, has described the book as 'crucial for anyone wanting to com­ prehend the role of the church in the promotion and realization of Namibian independence'. (Southern African Review of Books, Jan/Febl991) Goldberg's review is characteristic of the ignorance combined with tunnel vision of the international liberal/left establishment relating to southern Africa. The book in fact makes it impossible to comprehend the role of the churches in one of the most important episodes in the recent history of southern Africa: the cycle of wholesale arrests, torture, imprisonment and murder of Swapo members on the orders of their own leaders, dating from at least 1976 until the release of survivors in May 1989.

  • Hans Beukes, Long Road to Liberation. an Exiled Namibian
    Journal of Namibian Studies, 23 (2018): 101 – 123 ISSN: 2197-5523 (online) Thinking and writing liberation politics – a review article of: Hans Beukes, Long Road to Liberation . An Exiled Namibian Activist’s Perspective André du Pisani* Abstract Thinking and Writing Liberation Politics is a review article of: Hans Beukes, Long Road to Liberation. An Exiled Namibian Activist’s Perspective; with an introduction by Professor Mburumba Kerina, Johannesburg, Porcupine Press, 2014. 376 pages, appendices, photographs, index of names. ISBN: 978-1-920609-71-9. The article argues that Long Road to Liberation , being a rich, diverse, uneven memoir of an exiled Namibian activist, offers a sobering and critical account of the limits of liberation politics, of the legacies of a protracted struggle to bring Namibia to independence and of the imprint the struggle left on the political terrain of the independent state. But, it remains the perspective of an individual activist, who on account of his personal experiences and long absence from the country of his birth, at times, paints a fairly superficial picture of many internal events in the country. The protracted diplomatic-, political- and liberation struggle that culminated in the independence of Namibia in March 1990, has attracted a crop of publications written from different perspectives. This has produced many competing narratives. It would be fair to say that many of the books published over the last decade or so, differ in their range, quality and usefulness to researchers and the reading public at large. This observation also holds for memoirs, a genre of writing that is most demanding, for it requires brutal honesty, the ability to truthfully recall and engage with events that can traverse several decades.

  • Namibia and Angola: Analysis of a Symbiotic Relationship Hidipo Hamutenya*
    Namibia and Angola: Analysis of a symbiotic relationship Hidipo Hamutenya* Introduction Namibia and Angola have much in common, but, at the same time, they differ greatly. For example, both countries fought colonial oppression and are now independent; however, one went through civil war, while the other had no such experience. Other similarities include the fact that the former military groups (Angola’s Movimiento Popular para la Liberacão de Angola, or MPLA, and Namibia’s South West Africa People’s Organisation, or SWAPO) are now in power in both countries. At one time, the two political movements shared a common ideological platform and lent each other support during their respective liberation struggles. The two countries are also neighbours, with a 1,376-km common border that extends from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Zambezi River in the west. Families and communities on both sides of the international boundary share resources, communicate, trade and engage in other types of exchange. All these facts point to a relationship between the two countries that goes back many decades, and continues strongly today. What defines this relationship and what are the crucial elements that keep it going? Angola lies on the Atlantic coast of south-western Africa. It is richly endowed with natural resources and measures approximately 1,246,700 km2 in land surface area. Populated with more than 14 million people, Angola was a former Portuguese colony. Portuguese explorers first came to Angola in 1483. Their conquest and exploitation became concrete when Paulo Dias de Novais erected a colonial settlement in Luanda in 1575.

  • Onetouch 4.0 Sanned Documents
    Confidential NAMIBIAN REVIEW: MARCH 2005 Confidential A BRIEF POLITICAL OVERVIEW AND CURRENT ASSESSMENT OF DIAMOND DEVELOPMENTS IN NAMIBIA 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The recent elections in Namibia saw the ruling South West African Peoples Organisation (Swapo) swept back into power with the same number of seats as the previous election in 1999. With the new presidential candidate Hifikepunye Lukas Pohamba only being inaugurated on 24 March, continuity of policy on all levels is more or less expected, given the fact that Pohamba was hand-chosen by outgoing president Sam Nujoma to replace him. Potential rivals for the Swapo presidency were dealt with in the months leading up to the elections. This included specifically Hidipo Hamutenya, once one of Swapo's favourite sons, who was unceremoniously dumped as foreign minister by Nujoma in May 2004 just days before the Swapo Congress to choose Nujoma's successor. Though defeated, Hamutenya's background and support base in amongst people _ who were part of Swapo's Peoples Uberation Army of Namibia (Plan), will ensure that he emerges once again as Pohamba's chief challenger for the position in five years time. The opposition remains weak and in general disarray with the once powerful Democratic Turnhalle Alliance (DTA) , having lost nearly half the parliamentary seats it had prior to the last elections. As far as developments on the diamond front are concerned the report makes the following broad points: • Continuity in the government's diamond policy can be expected under Pohamba. • Lev Leviev has been the driving force behind changes in Namibia's mining legislation in 1999 and further changes being contemplated for the near future.
