A Socio-Economic Analysis of the Lives and Livelihoods of the Kuiseb Topnaar
A Socio-Economic Analysis Of The Lives And Livelihoods Of The Kuiseb Topnaar Munsu Lifalaza Abstract The Topnaar are a people living in- and outside of the Namib Naukluft National Park in the central Namib. The study, which aimed to characterize the Topnaar and update existing sources on them, collected data through socio-economic field surveys and interviews looking at aspects such as population structure, income status, sources of income and occupations. Most people living in the Topnaar community along the Kuiseb basin are adults and young ones. This group of people was known as pastoralists, hunter and gatherer. They also made use of sea resource but due to increase in commercializing fishing it is now impossible (Werner, 2003). The number of children is more than the number of adults in the Kuiseb because of the schools, which accommodate a substantial number of children from grade 1-7, although there are also some children who are not in school 6 1. Introduction This study looked at aspects of the Topnaar community such as education levels, health, interests, age and sex structures, income levels and sources. The project aims to draw a demographic report of the Topnaar, to assess the changes in their living styles and to determine what causes the differences in levels of development between different settlements. The detailed interviews capture their present and future interests on things that the wish to see in their settlement in future. After covering all these aims I updated some of the existing data on the Topnaar. Data collection was done through field interviews, which were divided into two parts: one of which was household interviews (visiting each household) and a second follow-up study on a selected number of individuals from households who were interviewed in detail. -

Die Reise führte uns von Windhoek nach Swakopmund, nach Utusep zu der Schule, an der Dr. Hausburg, Frau Charlotte Herzog und ich im Jahr 2001 die Einweihung des Speisesaales und der beiden Hostels für die die Jungen und Mädchen vornahmen. Wir weihten dort zwei weitere Schulräume ein, die aus Geldern anlässlich meines 70.ten Geburtstages gesammelt wurden. Gebaut haben diese zwei Klassenzimmer Lehrlinge von NIMT (Namibian Institute of Mining and Technology) unter der Leitung von Herrn Ralph Bussel, der heute als 2. Mann bei NIMT arbeitet. Bedankt haben wir uns bei den Lehrlingen und bei Herrn Bussel mit einem Mittagessen in Swakopmund. Das Team hatte hervorragende Arbeit geleistet. Weiteres können Sie aus dem Reisebericht von uns beiden lesen. Es war eine sehr gute Veranstaltung. Weiter fuhren wir nach Otjikondo, wo wir herzlich willkommen geheißen wurden. -

Existing Land Use Survey and Mapping in the Topnaar Community Along the Kuiseb River
Existing Land Use Survey And Mapping In The Topnaar Community Along The Kuiseb River Salom Shomeya Abstract: The Topnaar people live in small settlements on the northern bank of the Kuiseb River in Namibia’s Namib-Naukluft Park, in the middle of the Namib desert. This study focused on investigating and mapping the land use activities taking place in Topnaar settlements. The project also looked into the legal land rights frameworks in the Kuiseb Topnaar community. The project was conducted in six settlements along the Kuiseb River. The purpose of this project was to identify the existing land use activities and social services/amenities provided to the Kuiseb Topnaar community. The project mapped the existing land use activities to produce the spatial layout map of every Topnaar settlement in the Kuiseb. Fieldwork and literature review have provided much information on the Topnaar community for this project. 21 1.INTRODUCTION The Namib Desert, the world’s oldest desert stretches along the Atlantic Ocean from the Kunene River, in the north, to the Orange, in the south. The desert is transected by the Kuiseb River, which rises in the central plateau of Namibia, some 20 km southwest of Windhoek, and flows down to reach the Atlantic Ocean, in the vicinity of Walvis Bay (David, 1969). The Kuiseb River makes human existence possible in the Namib Desert (Ross 1970). The lower Kuiseb valley is home to approximately 300 Topnaar. The Topnaar, or ≠Aonin, a Nama tribe, are subsistence farmers (although they also gather !nara and sometimes hunt), (Henschel et al, 2004) who live in small settlements on the northern bank of the Kuiseb River (Dentlinger, 1977). -

1 25.1.2021 Aba-Huab, Twyvelfontein of Course We Do a Game Drive
25.1.2021 Aba-Huab, Twyvelfontein Of course we do a game drive first thing in the morning, hoping to see more of the elusive desert elephants. Soon we come across fresh elephant footprints and screen the surroundings attentively. The still low sun on the horizon is blinding us a bit, but we are not being disappointed. Soon one of us is shouting: “Eeeelephant”! 1 Incredible, to be so close to these wild animals. Elephants always move silently, hardly making any noise when walking through the bush. One cannot hear their steps only the breaking of a branch when they feed. The newest branches on the very top of the tree are of course the tastiest. Big trees are growing in the dry river bed, it almost looks like being in a park. However, the more westward we move the less elephant tracks we can see. On more oryx is our last wildlife before we drive out of the riverbed in De Riet. 2 In De Riet we are asked to register in a big book. The lady at the reception informs us quite pushy, that they live from tourists and would take everything, food, clothes and money…. After registration we look for the track leading us back into the riverbed. A reasonably used track turns in the right direction and we follow it. With a bit of searching for the right direction we get back into the Aba Huab. From here we follow the riverbed until we reach Twyvelfontein. The region around Twyfelfontein is renowned for its prehistoric rock paintings and many engravings. -
