    OSAC Country Security Report Botswana Last Updated: July 28, 2021 Travel Advisory The current U.S. Department of State Travel Advisory at the date of this report’s publication assesses Botswana at Level 4, indicating that travelers should not travel to Botswana due to COVID-19. Review OSAC’s report, Understanding the Consular Travel Advisory System. The Institute for Economics & Peace Global Peace Index 2021 ranks Botswana 41 out of 163 worldwide, rating the country as being at a High state of peace. Crime Environment The U.S. Department of State has assessed Gaborone as being a HIGH-threat location for crime directed at or affecting official U.S. government interests. The U.S. Department of State has not included a Crime “C” Indicator on the Travel Advisory for Botswana. Review the State Department’s Crime Victims Assistance brochure. Crime: General Threat Criminal incidents, particularly crimes of opportunity (e.g., purse snatchings, smash-and-grabs from parked cars and in traffic, residential burglaries), can occur regardless of location. Theft of mobile phones, laptop computers, and other mobile devices are common. Criminals can be confrontational. Criminals often arm themselves with knives or blunt objects (e.g., tools, shovels, bats). Botswana has strict gun-control laws, but criminals reportedly smuggle firearms from neighboring countries where weapons are inexpensive and readily available. A public awareness campaign highlights this issue and requests the public report illegal firearms to the police. Reporting indicates instances of non-violent residential burglaries and violent home invasions. Incidents affect local residents, expatriates, and visitors alike. Robberies and burglaries tend to spike during the holiday seasons.

  • State of the Media in Botswana, 2001
    State of the Media in Botswana, 2001 By Francis B. Nyamnjoh Associate Professor, Dept. of Sociology FSS, University of Botswana P/Bag UB00705 Gaborone Tel: (267) 3552674 (work) Tel: (267) 319282 (home) Cell:(267) 71655649 Fax:(267) 585099 Email: [email protected] [email protected] Introduction The 2000 report on media-government relations in Botswana sounded a relative note of optimism, which has been seriously tempered by events and developments in 2001. Relations between the government and the media have grown tenser, and mutual suspicion between the two has increased remarkably. It would appear that both are fast catching up with the reality of government-media relations elsewhere in Africa, making Botswana’s commitment to liberal democracy under increasing scrutiny. What accounts for such change of tone and direction? In what way have the media and the government given each other reason to rethink the importance of tolerance and freedom of expression as the foundation of liberal democracy in Botswana? Government Relations with the Private Press In the eyes of the Botswana government, in 2000 the critical private press, through perceived sensational, slanderous, often professionally and unethical coverage and reporting of the government (the President and vice president especially), gave the government reason to tighten the rules of the game of journalism in 2001. The government was not happy with the levity and disrespectful manner in which President Festus Mogae and Vice-President Ian Khama were constantly portrayed by some newspapers. We reported how in 2000 The Botswana Guardian http://www.nyamnjoh.com/ 1 accused the president and his government of callous disregard to the plight of the poor, portrayed him as “shrinking” to the whims and caprices of his vice-president, and of snubbing the Ombudsman’s recommendations which sought to bar the vice President from flying the Botswana Defence Force helicopters and taking public officers with him to political rallies.

  • Botswana Country Report Context
    Botswana Country Report Context 5. Radio 5.1 Key changes and developments in the radio marketplace in the past five years Although the Batswana were first exposed to radio broadcasting as early as the 1940s during the Second World War, broadcasting in Botswana can really be traced back to 1961 when the country inherited a 1kW medium wave transmitter that had initially been used by the Germans during the second world war to broadcast propaganda. The transmitter was originally based in Mafeking, but in 1963 it was moved to Lobatse, where it was code-named ZNB and used for public campaigns as the country geared up for national independence. Its broadcasts focused on constitutional development and other national development issues that built up to a Botswana nation state. The transmitter was brought to Gaborone in 1965, where it continued to broadcast until independence, and the station became known as Radio Botswana. Radio Botswana was the only radio station in Botswana at independence, and it continued to enjoy a monopoly until 1997. Its only competitors were neighbouring South African radio stations, mainly Radio Tswana and Radio Bop in the former homeland of Bophuthatswana. After majority rule in South Africa, Radio Tswana was renamed Motsweding FM and was relocated to the north-west province of South Africa. Radio Botswana continued to air a diversity of programmes featuring government policy and development and various cultural programmes, news and current affairs. Since 2003, Radio Botswana has broadcast around the clock and carries 99% national content with a few foreign programmes3. In April 1992, Radio Botswana started RB2, a commercial channel that carries advertising, and which complements Radio Botswana programming by concentrating on youth-based issues.

  • Promoting Language and Cultural Diversity Through the Mass Media: Views of Students at the University of Botswana
    ISSN 2411-9563 (Print) European Journal of Social Sciences September-December 2015 ISSN 2312-8429 (Online) Education and Research Volume 2, Issue 4 Promoting Language and Cultural Diversity through the Mass Media: Views of Students at the University of Botswana Koketso Jeremiah Lecturer, Department of Languages and Social Sciences Education, University of Botswana [email protected] Abstract This study investigates the views of students at the University of Botswana as to whether or not the current situation in which the languages of ethnic minority groups in Botswana are marginalized or excluded for use in the national media such as television, radio and the Botswana Daily News, should continue or not. The study answered the following research questions: 1. What national television and radio stations exist in Botswana? 2. What programmes do these television and radio stations broadcast and with which languages? 3. Is the current situation of broadcasting with regard to the languages used for broadcasting fair, and, if not, what can be done to remedy the situation? It also addressed the following objectives:1. To identify the national television and radio stations which exist in Botswana? 2. To identify the programmes that the existing national television and radio stations broadcast and the languages used to broadcast those programmes. 3. To find out if the current system of broadcasting is fair in terms of the languages used and if it is not, to suggest some measures that can be taken to remedy the situation.The study used qualitative methods. Sampling was done by using purposive sampling. The data collection method used was a questionnaire.
