  • The Contribution of the Resettlement Programme on Sustainable
    THE CONTRIBUTION OF THE RESETTLEMENT PROGRAMME ON SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS OF SMALL – SCALE COMMERCIAL FARMERS IN MARIENTAL RURAL CONSTITUENCY OF THE HARDAP REGION, NAMIBIA A THESIS SUBMITED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF EDUCATION (ADULT EDUCATION) OF THE UNIVERSITY OF NAMIBIA BY JEFTA VATUNA NGAVETENE 2001 00 580 OCTOBER 2019 SUPERVISOR: DR M. HAMUNYELA I ABSTRACT At independence, Namibia was confronted with a skewed land tenure system where the minority owned vast productive land (Juach et al., 2013). To avoid losing land to dominant locals and rich occupants the government established the Ministry of Lands and Resettlement to be responsible for the process of land reform and resettlement. As a result, the resettlement programme was established to assist in addressing social injustices and to improve the lives of those who are encircled by poverty. A resettlement programme is a developmental approach aimed at the alleviation of poverty and to uplift people’s livelihoods. This study investigated the contribution of Land Reform and Resettlement Programme (LRRP) on sustainable livelihoods of small-scale livestock commercial farmers in the Mariental Rural Constituency of Hardap Region. The study used a case study design of the qualitative approach to capture the reality of the small-scale livestock commercial farmers’ lived experiences of and thoughts about the resettlement programme, its intended purpose and benefits to them. The study revealed that the programme beneficiaries have managed to accumulate assets they did not have before they were resettled. The researcher assessed the lives of resettled farmers and remarkable improvement was observed and tangible assets were evident.

In this report, I will present the following aspects crosscutting all sectors: Effective governance through improved community-based planning, tourism, agriculture, education, health, safety and security, gender and housing In order to promote Effective governance through Community Based Planning I held a meeting in May 2020, with the Constituency Councillors and the Local Authorities, to review annual budgets and development plans. A key outcome was that we need to pro-actively set long term development targets. 2 Similarly, external resource mobilisation, Public-Private-Partnership and revenue collection should be enhanced in good faith to improve livelihood of our fellow citizens. It was also emphasised that the needs and opportunities identified at local authority and constituency level, must inform the overall strategic plan of the Hardap Regional Council, in order to ensure bottom-up participatory planning.

There continues to be a great disparity between rich and poor, and obstacles still exist between races. In both rural and urban regions of the country, many people live in shacks made from corrugated steel with little access to water, electricity, and basic sanitation. Since Independence, there has been a high number of rural citizens migrating to the capital city of Windhoek, most of whom end up living in shacks in the informal settlements of Katutura. This large influx in population, combined with a lack of job opportunities, has caused the unemployment rate in the Windhoek area to rise to around 30%.
