The Scramble for Land Between the Barokologadi Community and Hermannsburg Missionaries
The Scramble for Land between the Barokologadi Community and Hermannsburg Missionaries Victor MS Molobi https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7824-1048 University of South Africa [email protected] Abstract This article investigates the land claim of the Barokologadi of Melorane, with their long history of disadvantages in the land of their forefathers. The sources of such disadvantages are traceable way back to tribal wars (known as “difaqane”) in South Africa. At first, people were forced to retreat temporarily to a safer site when the wars were in progress. On their return, the Hermannsburg missionaries came to serve in Melorane, benefiting from the land provided by the Kgosi. Later the government of the time expropriated that land. What was the significance of this land? The experience of Melorane was not necessarily unique; it was actually a common practice aimed at acquiring land from rural communities. This article is an attempt to present the facts of that event. There were, however, later interruptions, such as when the Hermannsburg Mission Church became part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Southern Africa (ELCSA). Keywords: land claim; church land; Barokologadi; missionary movement; Hermannsburg; Melorane; Lutheran Introduction Melorane is the area that includes the southern part of Madikwe Game Park in the North West Province, with the village situated inside the park. The community of Melorane is known as the Barokologadi of Maotwe, which was forcibly removed in 1950. Morokologadi is a porcupine, which is a totem of the Barokologadi community. The community received their land back on 6 July 2007 through the National Department of Land Affairs. -

HIV/AIDS Behavioural Surveillance Survey (BSS) Dukwi Refugee Camp, Botswana May 2013 UNHCR & Botswana Ministry of Health 1 Acknowledgements The 2012 Botswana Behavioural Surveillance Survey (BSS) was a joint effort of UNHCR and the Botswana Ministry of Health, with funding from UNAIDS and WHO, and the support of Botswana Red Cross Society. The BSS was initiated and coordinated by Ms. Marian Schilperoord of UNHCR Geneva, and Dr. Njogu Patterson of UNHCR Pretoria, whose depth of experience overseeing similar surveys was incredibly valuable. Dr. Emmanuel Baingana of UNAIDS and Dr. Eugene Nyarko of WHO lent invaluable advice and support during critical phases of the project, and we are exceptionally grateful. The investigation team was led by the Principal Investigator Ms. Aimee Rose who managed the adaptation of the protocol and tools, field work, analysis and reporting. Dr. Marina Anderson, Co‐ Principal Investigator from the Ministry of Health, provided excellent technical oversight and coordination with the Ministry of Health. Three Investigators from the Ministry of Health, Ms. Lumba Nchunga, Ms. Betty Orapeleng and Ms. Bene Ntwayagae, provided input in each phase of the survey, from protocol development, pre‐planning missions to Dukwi Camp, monitoring of training and field work, and report compilation. The team benefitted from the dedicated support of UNHCR Country Representative Lynn Ngugi. We give special appreciation to UNHCR Program Officer Galefele Beleme for her tireless work on recruiting, finance, and logistics, and numerous other issues. UNHCR Head of Field Office Jane Okello facilitated the survey’s success at Dukwi Camp, with superb assistance from UNHCR staff Niroj Shrestha, Gracias Atwine, and Onkemetse Leburu. -

2017 SEAT Report Orapa, Letlhakane and Damtshaa Mines
SEAT 3 REPORT Debswana - Orapa, Letlhakane and Damtshaa Mine (OLDM) November 2017 1 2 FOREWORD rounded assessment of the socio-economic impacts of our operation – positive and negative - in our zone of influence. This is the second impact assessment of this nature being conducted, the first one having been carried out in 2014. The information in this socio-economic assessment report helped to improve our understanding of the local dynamics associated with the impact our operation’s that are real and perceived. It also provided us with invaluable insight into our stakeholders’ perspectives, expectations, concerns and suggestions. This report is a valuable tool to guide our thinking on community development and our management of the social impacts of OLDM’s future closure at the end of the life of mine. Furthermore, it provides a useful mechanism in mobilising local stakeholders to work with us towards successful mine closure. The report has also given valuable feedback on issues around mine expansion initiatives and access to resources like land and groundwater. More importantly, meaningful feedback has been provided around two critical areas: resettlement and options around town transformation. We recognise the complexity of a proper plan for future mine closure at the end of the life of mine. In the past, our plans for future mine closure mainly focused on environmental aspects, with community involvement often limited to cursory consultation processes. Today, in line with current trends, my team and I are convinced that community ownership of the post closure goals is the only sustainable means to propel communities to prosper when OLDM is no longer involved. -
