Abstract:

Although Khoekhoegowab is one of the national languages according to the Namibian constitution, it is not visibly used in many of the formal functions of public domains where we expect to find it as a national language. The data for this study were collected in a town called Keetmanshoop in Namibia. The data collection instrument employed for this study was a semi-structured interview as this allow for the gathering of vast quantities and also due to its greater flexibility. This paper puts agentive speakers at the centre of changes in their communicative economies. This thus suggests the need

Abstract:

This paper explores the content and communication acts of text messages in the form of SMSes written by Namibian citizens and published daily under “What you’re Saying!” in The Namibian.

Using the theoretical framework of Medium theory and theory of Cultural Hegemony, this paper argues that citizen engagement via SMS discloses how public communication contributes to press freedom, problem solving and nation-building in Namibia.

Abstract:

The advancements in current sources of information and technology have resulted in our ‘real lives’ becoming inundated with and entangled with new media and ‘virtual’ environments. Social media promotes freedom of expression, and remains a largely unregulated interactive space, despite the various monitoring mechanisms introduced by social platform hosts and owners to control hate speech and other forms of abuse. It is becoming increasingly evident that the protection of anonymity on social media platforms promotes the proliferation of new forms of misogyny and offensive language directed towa

Over the years, social media has evolved into the primary platform for political activism.

Citizens’ participation in social protests is fraught with emotion. Emotions elicited by political stimuli play a vital role in initiating and guiding goal-di

Abstract:

Namibia has long been praised for its excellent public policies. However, these public policies are diminished in value by implementation impediments that hinder achieving goals like service delivery and development. This presents a public policy implementation quagmire. However, it remains unclear which impediments currently thwart public policy implementation in Namibia. Research has yet to systematically investigate, consolidate, and produce a contemporary analysis of these impediments and solutions. This is important due to evolving challenges from globalization and population growth. Ther

Abstract:

Globally, the land is a valuable resource. Many years of colonialism resulted in the majority of the population having no access to agricultural land especially in many African countries, and Namibia is no exception. Today, land access and equity are burning issues. Hence, adopting a qualitative research approach and data collection with a non-random purposive sample of 60 respondents' through questionnaires, interviews, and secondary data to investigate how the stakeholder approach can facilitate the effective implementation of the land reform program to enhance access and equity in Namibia.

Abstract:

This study examines the impact of exports, imports, and trade openness on Namibia’s economic growth using the ARDL cointegration method. The results reveal a significant negative relationship between imports and economic growth, while exports and trade openness show positive and significant relationships with economic growth. Moreover, short-term economic growth is driven by exports, imports, and trade openness. The findings suggest that trade liberalisation and export-led growth are crucial for Namibia’s economic development. Overall, this study supports the mercantilist theory, which emphasi

Abstract:

Scholars of gender and climate change argue that gender-blind climate change actions could exacerbate existing inequalities and undermine sustained climate change adaptation actions. For this reason, since 2017, the Green Climate Fund placed gender among its key programming prerequisites, making it the first multilateral climate fund to do so worldwide. However, to date, no lessons to inform planned gender-responsive ecosystem-based interventions in Namibia have been drawn from community-based natural resource management. Thus, this paper aims to share key lessons regarding the way in which ge

Abstract:

Literature on participation in the informal food sector in cities of the Global South is conventionally characterized by a survivalist or opportunistic perspective. The main difference is that opportunists, in contrast to survivalists, are motivated by entrepreneurial choice rather than necessity and see opportunities for economic and social advancement in the sector. Recent studies in Brazil and India conclude that research on informal sector participation requires a “both/and” rather than “either/or” approach. The main problem this paper addresses is whether the “both/and” model is also appl

We report the implementation of a quality improvement collaborative (QIC) to accelerate integration of HTN and HIV care within public-sector health facilities in Namibia. Methods Twenty-four facilities participated in the QIC with the aim of increasing HTN screening and treatment among adult PWH (>15 years).

Abstract:

This study critically investigates the socio-economic effects of urban expansion and forced relocation on peri-urban communities in Nkurenkuru, Namibia. Urban expansion in middle-income countries often has negative impacts on peri-urban and rural communities. Urban expansion leads to the displacement of such communities, and this study focuses on the socio-economic effects of such urbanization-induced displacement. This study used a qualitative research design, with in-depth interviews to chart the effects of relocation on community life and livelihoods. Findings reveal that before relocation,
