    Extractions: February 2002 The following provides a brief summary of the original detailed proposal distributed to interested parties in July 2000, prior to the commencement of Geotrack's West African study. With sufficient support, the study commenced in October 2000, and the final of three volumes was completed in September 2001. The success of the study is a testament to the unique and valuable information available from AFTA on this margin. The final study differs somewhat from the original proposal. Notably, more than 250 AFTA analyses were performed, significantly greater than originally proposed. Two successful field excursions were undertaken exclusively for this study. The study is heavily data intensive allowing a firm platform from which new concepts and new models for the tectonics, uplift, maturation and sediment-supply histories can be evaluated and developed. Furthermore, the study contains an organic petrography report, with valuable discussion about widespread problems in this region when using conventional techniques to evaluate maturity. The study fundamentally relies on Thermal History Reconstruction (THR) which is an approach developed by Geotrack International to better understand basin development and sediment supply. The following summary of the original proposal outlines the main objectives of the study. For the original detailed proposal, or more detail on the final results and scope of the current study, we suggest you contact us for this information (Kerry Hegarty at

    Extractions: Caprivi: short history The Caprivi region has an interesting history. The inclusion of the strange shaped strip of land into Namibia (German South West Africa) was the result of negotiations between Germany and other colonial governments at the end of the 19th century. Before Namibia became German protectorate the area was known as Itenge and for a long time was ruled by Lozi kings, later forming part of British Bechuanaland Protectorate (Botswana at the present). It was agreed at the Berlin Conference (1890) that the strip of land would be added to German South West Africa as an extension, allowing the German colony to gain access to the Zambezi River, Lake Tanganyika and Indian ocean via another German colony, Tanzania (German East Africa). The region was named after chief German negotiator at the conference, Count von Caprivi ( Count Georg Leo von Caprivi di Caprara di Montecuccoli). From 1940 to 1981 the administration was run by South Africa from Pretoria, from 1981 to 1990 it was ruled under the Administration for Caprivians as part of the South West Africa Administration. 1990 to 1992 marked the transitional period following the Namibian Independence. In 1992 Caprivi becomes one of the 13 political regions in Namibia with its own regional governor and six councilors.

    Extractions: HISTORY Introduction Parliament is a neutral place where legislators meet to talk, discuss and consult frankly with each other on political, social and economic issues and their legal implications to society. It consist of elected and, or nominated representatives responsible for making and changing laws of the country. Namibia has passed from an era in which the law making processes were communal, and through colonial rule where laws and administrative decisions making were totally in the hands of the colonising countries. The laws that were passed by the colonisers were then imposed on Namibians. The country went through a struggle for the liberation led by SWAPO which culminated in its Independence in 1990, when a parliament that is truly representative of the Namibian people was established, based on the results of general elections. However, the traditional law making process that was suppressed during the colonial period survived and the result of this historical development is the two legal systems namely, customary and statutory laws that exist side by side in Namibia today. Pre-Colonial Period According to the Councils of Khoe-Khoe group debates on normative related issues, war and peace, migration and ratification of treaties were carried out by the Council.

    Extractions: adults: children: babies/toddlers: Namibia Tourism Information: Post-Colonial History South West Africa (SWA), declared a German protectorate in1884, was occupied by South African forces following the out-break of the First World War. Following the war, the League of Nations awarded South Africa a mandate to administer the territory. In 1925 the South African government granted limited self-government to the territory's white inhabitants. No trusteeship agreement was concluded after the Second World War, and the refusal of the UN in 1946 to agree to South Africa's request to annex SWA marked the beginning of a protracted dispute. In 1949 South Africa granted the territory's white voters representation in the South African parliament. In 1950 the International Court of Justice (lCJ) ruled that South Africa was not competent to place the territory under the UN trusteeship system, nor able to alter the legal status of the territory unilaterally. In 1966 the UN General Assembly voted to terminate South Africa's mandate and to assume responsibility for the territory; a 'Council for South West Africa' was appointed in 1967, and in the following year the UN resolved that the territory should be renamed Namibia. The South African government, however, refused to relinquish the terriory's administration to the UN.

The Church was a founder member of the Council of Churches in Namibia (CCN), which succeeded the Christian Council in 1978. Ministers and lay members remain deeply involved in the affairs and mission of the CCN, which elects a president every year from member churches in alphabetical order. All things being equal, this process should put a Congregationalist in the presidency by the year 2004. Philip Strydom already served as vice-president during 1997. The CCN has been intensively involved in the struggle against Apartheid and for the independence of Namibia. Throughout those traumatic years Peter Lamoela, Steve Titus and Philip Strydom faithfully made their contributions to the activities of the CCN.

    Extractions: The Congregational Church in Namibia PART 3 THE th CENTURY MOVEMENT OF CONGREGATIONALISM INTO NAMIBIA Second Movement The second movement of Congregationalism into Namibia was a lot more successful. It resulted mainly from the Great Depression of the 1930’s which caused people to move into the then South West Africa to look for a better livelihood. The hardships that people of colour experienced under Apartheid and racial discrimination in South Africa contributed in its own way to his exodus. People who crossed the Orange River were mostly land hungry farmers and people looking for opportunities in the building industry. By 1937 several individuals and families who used to be members of the Congregational Churches of Upington and Keimoes were settled all over Namibia, especially in the Rehoboth district and at places such as Windhoek, Kalkfeld and Luderitz. KALKFELD is regarded as the first centre of Congregationalism in Namibia.
