  • Land Use in Kavango: Past, Present and Future
    Land use in Kavango: past, present and future John Mendelsohn RAISON (Research and Information Services of Namibia) February 2009 Summary The report provides an overview of the major uses of land in Kavango, while paying attention to processes that have driven the use of land and its resources in the past and those that are now most significant. The majority of people, the most intense use and greatest pressures on resources are along the Okavango River. Populations have grown rapidly over the past several decades as a result of immigration from Angola. The approximately 28,200 rural households largely use their land for low input-low output farming, but most of their income and food security comes from sources unrelated to agriculture. The government sees the River water as an important source of irrigation water to be harvested before it leaves Namibia, in so doing contributing to the assumption that Kavango can be the breadbasket for Namibia. Urban growth is substantial because increasing numbers of people seek cash wealth which rural livelihoods can not provide, and because a variety of economic activities related to sub-regional trade are based in Rundu and other towns. Communal tenure limits long-term economic development while also encouraging the exploitation of commonage resources. However, over one-third of open communal land is being privatized into about 540 farms allocated to several hundred individuals. Although agriculture – in the form of large-scale irrigation projects for cereals and traditional farming methods – is unlikely to offer useful prospects for future development, more intense cultivation of high-value products has potential.

    2011 POPULATION AND HOUSING CENSUS Kavango Regional Profile Basic Analysis with Highlights February 2014 Content Foreword The first Population and Housing Census in an independent Namibia was conducted in 1991. Since then, a Census has been undertaken every ten years, and the 2011 Population and Housing Census marks Namibia’s third census since independence in 1990. The Census is demonstrative of the Namibia Statistics Agency’s (NSA) commitment to providing relevant and quality statistics to support decision making, policy formulation and monitoring of development programmes. This regional profile presents the result of the 2011 Namibia Population and Housing Census for the Kavango Region. The report provides a wide range of indicators on population characteristics, household and housing conditions and households enumerated in the region between 28 August and 15 September 2011. The report further provides detailed information on age and sex composition, marital status, education, literacy, economic activity, orphan-hood, fertility and disability. In addition, household size, housing amenities, ownership and the quality of housing are also presented in this report. All these indicators are provided at regional, urban/rural and constituency level. It should be noted that internal migration was not possible to calculate at constituency level. However it was provided at regional level in the 2011 main census report launched on 27 March 2013, as well as in the Population Atlas released in June 2013. This regional profile is the fourth in a series of reports to be released based on the 2011 census data. The first report - released in April 2012 - disseminated provisional results on the distribution of the population.

  • Namibia in 2013
    Namibia in 2013 2013 was a transitional year between the appointment of the future political leadership of the governing South West African People’s Organisation (SWAPO) at the end of 2012 and the parliamentary and presidential elections at the end of 2014. The general macro- economic performance remained stable while aggrandizement of the new elite and the lack of public services and delivery for many continued. A serious drought added to the misery. Domestic Politics During the year, the top brass of SWAPO, newly elected to take over political leadership in government after the parliamentary and pres- idential elections due to take place towards the end of 2014, became further strengthened. Team Hage (named after Prime Minister Hage Geingob, who was the party’s presidential candidate) was able to expand its control over strategic positions in the party governance structure. President Pohamba also appointed several supporters of Geingob to higher-ranking positions in the public administra- tion. The list of ten deputies appointed to the party secretariat at the end of May included only supporters of Team Hage. The party’s founding president, Sam Nujoma, addressing a party rally in the first weekend of June, endorsed for the first time the result of the elec- tion held at the party congress in November 2012 and thereby sig- nalled acceptance of Team Hage. The fact that this was considered an important message underlined the elder statesman’s continuing relevance for daily politics. This ended speculation concerning ‘the old man’s’ preferences and corrected the impression created by the Swapo Youth League, who supported another candidate.

  • Swapo Manifesto Achievements
    Swapo’s Review of 2004 Manifesto Achievements The Swapo party on April 19 2009 celebrated its 49 th anniversary that was marked by a mass rally that drew thousands of its members and supporters. A day before the rally, the party organised a gala dinner and during that event President of the Party Hifikepunye Pohamba launched a report of the Review of the 2004 Swapo Party Election Manifesto. The manifesto is based on six pillars that include building a vibrant economy, education, infrastructure, building a socially just society, prudent fiscal management and strong productive sectors, and peace democracy and good governance. The following outlines the achievements the party has made in the past five years. 1. Peace, Democracy and Good Governance The SWAPO Party ushered in peace and democracy in Namibia and remains committed to strengthening these principles. Below is an overview of the achievements during the period of the mandate in the areas of peace, democracy and good governance: 1.1 Peace In the 2004 SWAPO Party Election Manifesto, the Party committed itself to strengthening peace in the Caprivi region, and preserve, protect and promote diverse cultures to build a strong and vibrant nation. In addition, the Party made a commitment to actively participate in efforts aimed at bringing and maintaining peace and stability in SADC and beyond. The Caprivi region remained peaceful and most of the refugees in Botswana were repatriated. As a strategy to meet Namibia’s Safety and Security needs, the Ministry of Safety and Security was established for better coordination and enforcement of law and order.
