  • 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.

The total area of the Focal Landscape is 219,513 ha. The landscape is fairly flat and parts of it are prone to flooding during the wet season. It is characterized by clay-loam and sandy-loam soils, and rural livelihoods are based mainly on livestock, dryland cropping, and tourism and wildlife in the conservancies. The relevant features of the landscape are: The Zambezi Focal Landscape is located in several constituencies in the Zambezi Region, namely • Katima Mulilo Rural Constituency. • Kabbe North Constituency. • Kabbe South Constituency. • Sibbinda Constituency. 1.2 Ethnic Groups The Focal Landscape is mainly inhabited by the Mafwe and the Masubia people. WATS Investment cc is the Consortium responsible for overseeing the implementation of the landscape activities in this Focal Landscape. 1.3 Population and demographics The population in the Zambezi Focal Landscape has been calculated from the 2011 cen- sus data, using the NSA’s disaggregated figure for the exact area of the focal landscape (7,213 people) (NSA 2021 pers. comm.) and applying to this the annual growth rate of 1.3% for the Region (NSA 2012). This calculates to 8,207 people. In 2011 the sex ratio was roughly equal, with a very small male bias (51.9% men to 48.1% women).

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.

Box 90709, Windhoek 76 Dr Frans Indongo St, Windhoek West Environmental Assessment (EA) for the Proposed Opuwo Abattoir Upgrade, Kunene Region Final Scoping Report 17 August 2021 Proponent: Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform Environmental Assessment – Opuwo Abattoir Upgrade Final Scoping Report – August 2021 Executive Summary Introduction The Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform (the Proponent) proposes to upgrade the existing abattoir in Opuwo (hereafter the Opuwo Abattoir) within the Opuwo Townlands in the Kunene Region (the project). the Opuwo Abattoir has been in existence, in its current location, for a few decades. The abattoir has gone through a few active and dormant phases during this period. Informal residential settlement has over the past few decades slowly expanded within a few hundred metres of the abattoir. The abattoir has been dormant for at least several months. The abattoir in its current form requires an upgrade to become operational again and satisfy international health, safety and environmental best practice. Public Consultation The first round of public consultation took place from 13 November 2019 to 5 December 2019. The main issues that were raised during the first round of public consultation are as follows: • Impact of the proposed upgrade on neighbouring property values. • Concern was raised regarding waste management (i.e. wastewater, solid waste) and the potential impact of waste on water and air quality and health. • Concern was raised concerning noise generated by the abattoir activities. • Concern was raised about the ability of the Opuwo Town Council to supply the required water demand.

    Media Monitoring on Urban Development in Namibia Media Monitoring on Urban Development in Namibia is a service provided by Development Workshop Namibia (DWN), a newly registered Namibian NGO with a focus on sustainable urban development and poverty reduction. DWN is part of a world-wide network of Development Workshop (DW) organisations with centres in Canada, Angola and France, and offices in Vietnam and Burkino Faso. It was founded in the 1970s by three Canadian architectural students and has been funded by non-governmental organisations, private citizens, and national and international development organisations. In Namibia, DWN’s activities focus on urban related research, effective urban planning for the urban poor, solutions to informal settlements, water & sanitation, and projects specifically targeting disadvantaged segments of the urban youth. Through 40 years of engagement on urban issues mainly in Africa and Asia, the DW network of organisations has acquired significant institutional knowledge and capacity and is well integrated in regional and international networks. The Namibian media provide an important source of information on urban development processes in the country, highlighting current events, opportunities and challenges. The media further provide insight into the different views and perceptions of a variety of actors, be it from government, non- government, private sector, and individuals that reside in Namibia’s towns and settlements. It is therefore hoped that DWN’s Media Monitoring service will provide insights into those different views, with potential use for a variety of institutions and decision-makers that work in the urban environment in Namibia. The Media Monitoring service is currently provided on a monthly basis and monitors the following newspapers: The Namibian, Republikein, Namibian Sun, New Era, Windhoek Observer, Confidente, Informante, and Economist.

    Namibia https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-world/2019/namibia A. ELECTORAL PROCESS: 10 / 12 A1. Was the current head of government or other chief national authority elected through free and fair elections? 4 / 4 The president is both chief of state and head of government, and is directly elected for up to two five-year terms. In the 2014 election, Hage Geingob defeated numerous rivals for the presidency, winning 87 percent of the vote. The polls were deemed competitive and credible by election observers, though some logistical glitches with electronic voting machines were reported. A2. Were the current national legislative representatives elected through free and fair elections? 3 / 4 The National Council, the upper chamber of the bicameral Parliament, is comprised of 42 seats, with members appointed by regional councils for six-year terms. The lower house, the National Assembly, has 96 seats filled by popular election for five- year terms using party-list proportional representation. The 2014 polls were seen as competitive and credible by election observers, though some logistical glitches with electronic voting machines were reported.

  • The Role of Regional Councillors in Consultation and Communication Regarding Rural Service Delivery in the Oshana Region of Namibia
    THE ROLE OF REGIONAL COUNCILLORS IN CONSULTATION AND COMMUNICATION REGARDING RURAL SERVICE DELIVERY IN THE OSHANA REGION OF NAMIBIA Tuhafeni Helao A research report submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Public Administration in the School of Government, Faculty of Economic and Management Sciences, University of the Western Cape. October 2005 Supervisor Prof. C. De Coning i DEDICATION This research report is dedicated to the memory of my late grandmother, Susanna Mhingana Iiyambo; for her courage and advice from my childhood. Her departure on the 24th October 2004 has left a vacuum in the family, and indeed, in me, a memory which will never faint for the rest of my life. That is why I am saying: ‘Hambelela Nyokokulu, Nyoko ngeno ina dalwa’, if loosely translated it means; Praise your grandmother otherwise your mother could not have been born”. Thank you grandmother! ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Whilst I take full responsibility for whatever is presented in this Research Report, I am mindfully aware that it could not have been completed in its entirety without the undivided co-operation of a number of people, who gave their moral support, expertise, experience, views and time. Therefore, I wish to express my gratitude to my wife Emma and my children (Ndalinoshisho, Nangolo, Nelao, Ndeshipanda, Ndahafa and Ndapewa). Your patience, considerate and understanding have made this study a reality and without you being there for me I would never have achieved this. Secondly, I will not do justice to myself if I do not express my gratitude and appreciation to Prof.
