April While the Houses Were Not Complete 11111 Media Monitoring on Urban Development in Namibia Media Monitoring on Urban Development in Namibia is a service provided by Development Workshop Namibia (DWN), a newly registered Namibian NGO with a focus on sustainable urban development and poverty reduction. DWN is part of a world-wide network of Development Workshop (DW) organisations with centres in Canada, Angola and France, and offices in Vietnam and Burkino Faso. It was founded in the 1970s by three architect students in the UK and has been funded by non- governmental organisations, private citizens, and national and international development organisations. In Namibia, DWN’s activities focus on urban related research, effective urban planning for the urban poor, solutions to informal settlements, water & sanitation, and projects specifically targeting disadvantaged segments of the urban youth. Through 40 years of engagement on urban issues mainly in Africa and Asia, the DW network of organisations has acquired significant institutional knowledge and capacity and is well integrated in regional and international networks. The Namibian media provide an important source of information on urban development processes in the country, highlighting current events, opportunities and challenges. The media further provide insight into the different views and perceptions of a variety of actors, be it from government, non- government, private sector, and individuals that reside in Namibia’s towns and settlements. It is therefore hoped that DWN’s Media Monitoring service will provide insights into those different views, with potential use for a variety of institutions and decision-makers that work in the urban environment in Namibia. The Media Monitoring service is currently provided on a monthly basis and monitors the following newspapers: The Namibian, Republikein, Namibian Sun, New Era, Windhoek Observer, Confidente, and Informante. Compiled by: The articles are grouped into following categories: Esleen Guriras & Alina Nambuli 1. Urban Planning, Land & Housing Edited by: Beat Weber 2. Urban Infrastructure and Services Produced by: 3. Livelihoods and Urban Economy Development Workshop Namibia 4. Environment & Human Health Address: The text of the news articles has not been altered and thus 18 Nachtigal Street PO Box 40723, Ausspannplatz reflects the opinion of the respective media outlets, and not Windhoek, Namibia that of DWN. We hope you find this service useful and 081 627 92 53 interesting. DWN is keen to improve the service and [email protected] welcomes suggestions and comments.

  • Scraping the Pot: Chapter 04
    Part II Geographical Analysis Photo: A Hai||om elder with Hai||om children in Etosha. Chapter 4: Omaheke Region 37 A note about the arrangement of the regional chapters The regional chapters (4-11) are arranged in a 'circular' pattern and according to the area of habitation of the different San language groups, thus this arrangement provides for some continuity in reporting on San groups whose cultures and traditional practices are the same or similar. Starting in Omaheke (Chapter 4), we move north-west and then east, ending in Caprivi (Chapter 11). Ohangwena precedes Omusati in this pattern because the San in Ohangwena are Hai||om and !Xun, as in Kunene, Oshana and Oshikoto. For ease of reference and navigation, these chapters are colour coded as indicated in the map below.

Preparation of Cabinet Agenda Of late, the Prime Minister has noticed that some of the Cabinet Memoranda referred to the Cabinet Office for placement on Cabinet Agenda do not conform to the requirements set out in the Cabinet Handbook. As a result, there is marked increase in the incidence of issues referred back from the Cabinet. In order to avoid such instances, all Permanent Secretaries should - ensure that Cabinet Memoranda submitted to the Cabinet Office are prepared in conformity with the provisions set out in the Cabinet Handbook. Specifically, the Permanent Secretaries should ensure that: 1. Cabinet Memoranda are prepared after the necessary consultation with the various ministries or offices affected by or having an interest in the issues being referred to the Cabinet for decision; 2. the Memoranda are unambiguous. They must be very specific as to the Cabinet decisions being sought. This requires that the Memoranda must contain specific recommendations -- it is not sufficient merely to present a problem to the Cabinet for a decision without proposing course of action or actions; and - 3.

In accordance with the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations (GN 30 in GG 4878 of 6 February 2012) of the Environmental Management Act (No. 7 of 2007) the activities listed below, which forms part of the proposed operations, may not be undertaken without an Environmental Clearance: TOURISM DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES The construction of resorts, lodges, hotels or other tourism and hospitality facilities. OTHER ACTIVITIES Construction of cemeteries, camping, leisure and recreation sites. The land within the immediate vicinity of the proposed project area is characterised by residential and farming activities. The site is in a transformed state from an ecological perspective and human interference is visible. It is thus believed that the overall cumulative impact of the proposed project on the biophysical and socio-economical environments is expected to be low.
