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. -

Nutrition and Food Security in the Resettlement Farms of Skoonheid and Drimiopsis, Namibia
Nutrition and Food Security in the Resettlement Farms of Skoonheid and Drimiopsis, Namibia Evans Burford John Favreau Lauren Gergel Olivia O’Connell May 8th, 2009 ADVISOR: CXP PROJECT NUMBER: N097 DIVISION NUMBER: 49B Nutrition and Food Security in the Resettlement Farms of Skoonheid and Drimiopsis, Namibia AN INTERACTIVE QUALIFYING PROJECT SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF BACHELOR OF SCIENCE BY EVANS BURFORD JOHN FAVREAU LAUREN GERGEL OLIVIA O’CONNELL DATE: 8 MAY, 2009 Food-security, APPROVED: Nutrition, PROFESSOR R. CREIGHTON PEET, MAJOR ADVISOR Resettlement PROFESSOR HOLLY K. AULT, CO-ADVISOR This report represents the work of four WPI undergraduate students. Submitted to the faculty as evidence of completion of a degree requirement. WPI routinely publishes these reports on its website without editorial or peer review. i Abstract The purpose of this project was to assess community Food Security and Nutrition in relation to health and development on the resettlement farms of Skoonheid and Drimiopsis in Namibia. In living with the communities and conducting group based activities, we have developed a comprehensive understanding of issues including agriculture, animal husbandry, and marketing practices. From these findings we created recommendations on how to sustainably improve the livelihoods of farm residents in addition to a pictorial manual about proper nutrition. ii Acknowledgements We would like to thank the following people and institutions: Our sponsoring agencies, The Desert Research Foundation of Namibia and the Fundación CEAR, for providing us with this research opportunity and supporting us. The Spanish Agency for International Development and the Namibian Ministry of Lands, Resettlement and Rehabilitation for funding our project. -
People, Cattle and Land - Transformations of Pastoral Society
People, Cattle and Land - Transformations of Pastoral Society Michael Bollig and Jan-Bart Gewald Everybody living in Namibia, travelling to the country or working in it has an idea as to who the Herero are. In Germany, where most of this book has been compiled and edited, the Herero have entered the public lore of German colonialism alongside the East African askari of German imperial songs. However, what is remembered about the Herero is the alleged racial pride and conservatism of the Herero, cherished in the mythico-histories of the German colonial experiment, but not the atrocities committed by German forces against Herero in a vicious genocidal war. Notions of Herero, their tradition and their identity abound. These are solid and ostensibly more homogeneous than visions of other groups. No travel guide without photographs of Herero women displaying their out-of-time victorian dresses and Herero men wearing highly decorated uniforms and proudly riding their horses at parades. These images leave little doubt that Herero identity can be captured in photography, in contrast to other population groups in Namibia. Without a doubt, the sight of massed ranks of marching Herero men and women dressed in scarlet and khaki, make for excellent photographic opportunities. Indeed, the populär image of the Herero at present appears to depend entirely upon these impressive displays. Yet obviously there is more to the Herero than mere picture post-cards. Herero have not been passive targets of colonial and present-day global image- creators. They contributed actively to the formulation of these images and have played on them in order to achieve political aims and create internal conformity and cohesion. -
