BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS- HUMAN SETTLEMENTS REPORT 2018 BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS HUMANHU SETTTTLEMENNTSNTT REPORT 2018 BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS- HUMAN SETTLEMENTS REPORT 2018 3. Preface Statistics Botswana presents the second edition of the Botswana Environment Statistics: Human Settlements Report as guided by the United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (FDES). The report presents statistics and trends on the environment on which people live and work, as well as diseases and conditions that are largely influenced by environmental factors. Data used in this report are secondary and were drawn from the national Population and Housing Censuses; the intercensal Botswana Demographic Survey as well as administrative reports from various Government departments notably the Ministry of Health and Wellness; and the National Disaster Management Office. The statistical information provided in this report is intended for use by decision-makers in Government, the private sector and civic society for the management and improvement of conditions related to human settlements, shelter conditions, safe water, sanitation and health. The management of these conditions is important, particularly in light of the rapid urbanization, increasing pollution, environmental degradation and the likely effects of climate change on Botswana. This in turn, will catalyse the nation’s achievement of the national development vision and goals enshrined in Vision 2036, National Development Plans and the Sustainable Development Goals. I wish to acknowledge the Ministry of Health and Wellness as well as the National Disaster Management Office in the Office of the President for their significant contribution by providing the required data. The continued production of this report is dependent on strong collaboration with our key stakeholders. For more information and further enquiries, contact the Directorate of Stakeholder Relations at 3671300. All Statistics Botswana outputs/publications are available on the website at www.statsbots.org.bw and at the Statistics Botswana Library (Head-Office, Gaborone). _____________________ Burton S.

However, these rights are not enjoyed equally by all. Areas of concern include violence against women and children; discrimination against indigenous peoples; child labour; over reliance on and abuses by the mining sector; respect for diversity and culture; effectiveness of social protection programmes; and access to quality healthcare services. It is recommended that government develop a comprehensive national action plan on human rights that applies to both state and business. 2 Separation of Powers Political and personal interests have made separation between Botswana’s three arms of government difficult.
