Final Project Report for 2016 START Grants for Global Change Research in Africa
Final Project Report for 2016 START Grants for Global Change Research in Africa Project Title Water Security in Windhoek: governance, water demand and supply, and livelihoods in the context of urbanization and climate change Abstract Governance In the study, UJAMS Waste Water Treatment Plant (UWWTP) served as a case study to investigate governance and policy analysis in relation to water security in the city of Windhoek. The study revealed that there are different actors that were involved in discussion and decision making to address the issue of water supply to industries, pollution from industrial effluent and the need to find diverse alternatives to the water insecurity problem that ultimately led to establishment and operation of the (UWWTP) Analysis of Water Management Plan for City of Windhoek 2017 and Transformational Strategic Plan (2017-2022) for City of Windhoek policies revealed that despite being developed recently after the Namibia Climate Change Policy, Strategy and Action Plan had been enacted, very little climate change related issues are mainstreamed and used in these policies despite Windhoek. Water demand and supply In central Namibia, where the Capital Windhoek is hosted, water is very scarce. To cope with the effect of drought, water is transferred from Kombat Karst Aquifer and Von Bach and Swakoppoort dam on the Swakop River. The effect of drought on the Swakop River is not well known. To understand the effect of drought, streamflow, and rainfall data from 1969 to 2016 were collected and analyzed using drought indices such as Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Streamflow Drought Index (SDI). It was found that, drought periods were not continuous and a wet period was always followed. -
Revisiting the Windhoek Old Location
Revisiting the Windhoek Old Location Henning Melber1 Abstract The Windhoek Old Location refers to what had been the South West African capital’s Main Lo- cation for the majority of black and so-called Colored people from the early 20th century until 1960. Their forced removal to the newly established township Katutura, initiated during the late 1950s, provoked resistance, popular demonstrations and escalated into violent clashes between the residents and the police. These resulted in the killing and wounding of many people on 10 December 1959. The Old Location since became a synonym for African unity in the face of the divisions imposed by apartheid. Based on hitherto unpublished archival documents, this article contributes to a not yet exist- ing social history of the Old Location during the 1950s. It reconstructs aspects of the daily life among the residents in at that time the biggest urban settlement among the colonized majority in South West Africa. It revisits and portraits a community, which among former residents evokes positive memories compared with the imposed new life in Katutura and thereby also contributed to a post-colonial heroic narrative, which integrates the resistance in the Old Location into the patriotic history of the anti-colonial liberation movement in government since Independence. O Lord, help us who roam about. Help us who have been placed in Africa and have no dwelling place of our own. Give us back a dwelling place.2 The Old Location was the Main Location for most of the so-called non-white residents of Wind- hoek from the early 20th century until 1960, while a much smaller location also existed until 1961 in Klein Windhoek. -

Public Perception of Windhoek's Drinking Water and Its Sustainable
Public Perception of Windhoek’s Drinking Water and its Sustainable Future A detailed analysis of the public perception of water reclamation in Windhoek, Namibia By: Michael Boucher Tayeisha Jackson Isabella Mendoza Kelsey Snyder IQP: ULB-NAM1 Division: 41 PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF WINDHOEK’S DRINKING WATER AND ITS SUSTAINABLE FUTURE A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF THE PUBLIC PERCEPTION OF WATER RECLAMATION IN WINDHOEK, NAMIBIA AN INTERACTIVE QUALIFYING PROJECT REPORT SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE SPONSORING AGENCY: Department of Infrastructure, Water and Waste Management The City of Windhoek SUBMITTED TO: On-Site Liaison: Ferdi Brinkman, Chief Engineer Project Advisor: Ulrike Brisson, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Ingrid Shockey, WPI Professor SUBMITTED BY: ____________________________ Michael Boucher ____________________________ Tayeisha Jackson ____________________________ Isabella Mendoza ____________________________ Kelsey Snyder Abstract Due to ongoing water shortages and a swiftly growing population, the City of Windhoek must assess its water system for future demand. Our goal was to follow up on a previous study to determine the public perception of the treatment process and the water quality. The broader sample portrayed a lack of awareness of this process and its end product. We recommend the City of Windhoek develop educational campaigns that inform its citizens about the water reclamation process and its benefits. i Executive Summary Introduction and Background Namibia is among the most arid countries in southern Africa. Though it receives an average of 360mm of rainfall each year, 83 percent of this water evaporates immediately after rainfall. Another 14 percent goes towards vegetation, and 1 percent supplies the ground water in the region, thus leaving merely 2 percent for surface use. -
