  • Social and Economic Stress Related to the HIV/AIDS Epidemic in Botswana Thabo T
    Social and Economic Stress Related to the HIV/AIDS Epidemic in Botswana Thabo T. Fako, Ph.D. Department of Sociology University of Botswana J. Gary Linn, Ph.D. School of Nursing Center for Health Research Tennessee State University Dolly Ntseane Department of Sociology University of Botswana Lorna Kendrick, RN, Ph.D. School of Nursing Tennessee State University Abstract: The paper describes the consequences of HIV/AIDS in Botswana; the country with the highest HIV prevalence rate in Africa. In addition to frequently experienced trauma due to sickness and death, many households experience rising health expenditures and a sharp deterioration of incomes. High levels of morbidity and mortality among workers result in depressed returns on investment, reduced productivity and increased expenditure on training and replacement of workers. As the health care system finds it increasingly difficult to cope, home-based care provides an inadequate solution since the home infrastructure of many households is inadequate for proper care of seriously ill patients. The stigma associated with AIDS often isolates fragile households and provides an environment in which abuse of infected individuals and of orphans whose parents have died of AIDS is not uncommon. The quality of education also suffers, resulting in an ill prepared skilled manpower, with adverse consequences for social, economic, and political development as well as for good future governance of the country. Key Words: Botswana, AIDS, stress Introduction HIV has spread very quickly throughout Botswana since the first reported AIDS case in 1985, resulting in the country having the highest prevalence rate in Africa. The epidemic has been attributed to multiple causes, including an economic structure that has promoted long-term separation of husbands and wives, insufficient attention to AIDS prevention education in the late 1980s, and a good network of highways that facilitates travel and internal migration and rapid spread of HIV (United Nations Development Program 2000).

  • Spatial Analysis of HIV Infection and Associated Risk Factors in Botswana
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Spatial Analysis of HIV Infection and Associated Risk Factors in Botswana Malebogo Solomon *, Luis Furuya-Kanamori and Kinley Wangdi Department of Global Health, Research School of Population Health, Australian National University, Canberra, ACT 2601, Australia; [email protected] (L.F.-K.); [email protected] (K.W.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Botswana has the third highest human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence globally, and the severity of the epidemic within the country varies considerably between the districts. This study aimed to identify clusters of HIV and associated factors among adults in Botswana. Data from the Botswana Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Impact Survey IV (BIAS IV), a nationally representative household-based survey, were used for this study. Multivariable logistic regression and Kulldorf’s scan statistics were used to identify the risk factors and HIV clusters. Socio-demographic characteristics were compared within and outside the clusters. HIV prevalence among the study participants was 25.1% (95% CI 23.3–26.4). HIV infection was significantly higher among the female gender, those older than 24 years and those reporting the use of condoms, while tertiary education had a protective effect. Two significant HIV clusters were identified, one located between Selibe-Phikwe and Francistown and another in the Central Mahalapye district. Clusters had higher levels of unemployment, less people with tertiary education and more people residing in rural areas compared to regions outside the clusters. Our study identified high-risk populations and regions with a high burden of HIV infection in Botswana.

BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS WATER DIGEST 2018 Statistics Botswana PREFACE This is Statistics Botswana’s annual Botswana Environment Statistics: Water Digest. It is the first solely water statistics annual digest. This Digest will provide data for use by decision-makers in water management and development and provide tools for the monitoring of trends in water statistics. The indicators in this report cover data on dam levels, water production, billed water consumption, non-revenue water, and water supplied to mines. It is envisaged that coverage of indicators will be expanded as more data becomes available. International standards and guidelines were followed in the compilation of this report. The United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (UNFDES) and the United Nations International Recommendations for Water Statistics were particularly useful guidelines.

  • Botswana North-South Carrier Water Project Field Survey
    Botswana North-South Carrier Water Project Field Survey: July 2003 1. Project Profile & Japan’s ODA Loan Angola Zambia Botswana Zimbabwe Namibia Maun Francistown Ghanzi Palapye Mamuno Maharapye South Africa Gaborone Tshabong Project location map Mmamashia Water Treatment Works 1.1 Background Botswana is a landlocked country that is situated in the Kalahari Basin on the plains of southern Africa (average altitude: approximately 900 meters); it is bordered by the Republic of South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Zambia. Its territory is generally flat and covers an area of 582 thousand square meters or approximately one-and-a-half times the size of Japan. It has a sub-tropical climate, with much of the country being arid or semi-arid. Annual rainfall averages 400mm nationwide, with southwestern regions seeing the least precipitation (250mm) and southeastern areas the most (600mm). Rainfall levels are seasonally affected and unstable. Botswana has few surface water resources in consequence of its topographical and geographical features and sources the majority of its water from groundwater fossil resources. At the time of appraisal, the water supply rate was 100 percent in urban areas centered around the capital, Gaborone, but in view of the fact that demand was growing at exponential rates, large-scale development of underground water was problematic and water resources around the capital had been developed, the country was considering water transmission from other regions. In addition, Gaborone was importing water on a regular basis from South Africa and the country harbored a long-cherished wish to develop independent national water resources. By contrast, the water supply rate in the regions was 50 percent and reliant on groundwater.

  • Botswana Country Report-Annex-4 4Th Interim Techical Report
    PROMOTING PARTNERSHIPS FOR CRIMEPREVENTION BETWEEN THE STATE AND PRIVATE SECURITY PROVIDERS IN BOTSWANA BY MPHO MOLOMO AND ZIBANI MAUNDENI Introduction Botswana stands out as the only African country to have sustained an unbroken record of liberal democracy and political stability since independence. The country has been dubbed the ‘African Miracle’ (Thumberg Hartland, 1978; Samatar, 1999). It is widely regarded as a success story arising from its exploitation and utilisation of natural resources, establishing a strong state, institutional and administrative capacity, prudent macro-economic stability and strong political leadership. These attributes, together with the careful blending of traditional and modern institutions have afforded Botswana a rare opportunity of political stability in the Africa region characterised by political and social strife. The expectation is that the economic growth will bring about development and security. However, a critical analysis of Botswana’s development trajectory indicates that the country’s prosperity has it attendant problems of poverty, unemployment, inequalities and crime. Historically crime prevention was a preserve of the state using state security agencies as the police, military, prisons and other state apparatus, such as, the courts and laws. However, since the late 1980s with the expanded definition of security from the narrow static conception to include human security, it has become apparent that state agencies alone cannot combat the rising levels of crime. The police in recognising that alone they cannot cope with the crime levels have been innovative and embarked on other models of public policing, such as, community policing as a public society partnership to combat crime. To further cater for the huge demand on policing, other actors, which are non-state actors; in particular private security firms have come in, especially in the urban market and occupy a special niche to provide a service to those who can afford to pay for it.
