References Introduction The 60 genera Anacardiaceae comprising some 600 species of trees and shrubs are distributed throughout the tropics, and are also found in warm temperate regions of Europe, eastern Asia, and the Americas. Many species have been widely cultivated beyond their limited areas of origin because of their economic importance as sources of timber, lacquer, oil, wax, dye, and for their often edible fruit or nuts. Five species are native to tropical and South America. The most important fruit is the mango from Mangifera indica L., whilst the most important nuts are the cashews (

You are here allRefer Reference Angola History ... Angola Angola Ovambo, Nyaneka-Humbe, Herero, and Others In the southeastern corner of the country the Portuguese distinguished a set of Bantu-speaking people, described on a map prepared by José Redinha in 1973 as the Xindonga. The sole linguistic group listed in this category was the Cussu. The Language Map of Africa , prepared under the direction of David Dalby for the International African Institute, noted two sets of related languages in southeastern Angola. The first set included Liyuwa, Mashi, and North Mbukushu. These languages and other members of the set were also found in Zambia and Namibia. The members of the second set, Kwangali-Gcikuru and South Mbukushu, were also found in Namibia and Botswana. The hyphen between Kwangali and Gcikuru implies mutual intelligibility. Little is known of these groups; in any case, their members were very few. All of these southern Angolan groups relied in part or in whole on cattle raising for subsistence. Formerly, the Herero were exclusively herders, but they gradually came to engage in some cultivation. Although the Ovambo had depended in part on cultivation for a much longer time, dairy products had been an important source of subsistence, and cattle were the chief measure of wealth and prestige. The southwestern groups, despite their remoteness from the major centers of white influence during most of the colonial period, were to varying degrees affected by the colonial presence and, after World War II, by the arrival of numbers of Portuguese in such places as Moçâmedes (present-day Namibe) and Sá da Bandeira (present-day Lubango). The greatest resistance to the Portuguese was offered by the Ovambo, who were not made fully subject to colonial rule until 1915 and who earned a considerable reputation among the Portuguese and other Africans for their efforts to maintain their independence. In the nationalist struggle of the 1960s and early 1970s and in the postindependence civil war, the Ovambo tended to align themselves with the Ovimbundu-dominated UNITA. Many also sympathized with the cause of SWAPO, a mostly Ovambo organization fighting to liberate Namibia from South African rule.

Challenging The Vestiges Of Past Subjugation: Influences Of Educational Reforms apartheid era used to describe people of both shortage, in addition to the indigenous Namibian teachers mother tongue (Damara, Oshiwambo, kwangali, Tswana, or http://radicalpedagogy.icaap.org/content/issue5_2/01_dunn.html

Radical Pedagogy (2003) ISSN: 1524-6345 Thea K. Dunn, Ph.D. College of Education University of Wisconsin-River Falls thea.k.dunn@uwrf.edu Abstract The Social and Historical Context The apartheid dispensation, which was responsible for inequitable funding, resources, and access to education, left as its legacy teachers with eight to ten years of education, student-teacher ratios of 60:1, and dropout and failure rates of 82 percent (Amukugo, 1993). As they dismantled the discriminatory and inequitable Bantu educational system, the newly independent Namibian government embarked upon the process of developing a new praxis. Modeling their transformed educational system along democratic, empowering, and reconstructive lines, the Namibian government mandated reforms based upon the goals of access, equity, quality, and democracy (MEC, 1993). The School and Community At Ombuwa, the students who are enrolled in mathematics classes in which first-year algebra content is included in the syllabus are typically fifteen to nineteen years old. Like their teachers, the students who attend Ombuwa are culturally diverse and represent a cross-section of educational backgrounds. Although the surrounding community attracts migratory laborers from throughout the country, and many students live with guardians rather than their parents, the student population is remarkably stable. Methodology Participants Data Collection Data Analysis Results must Believing the teacher is in a privileged position and that learning mathematics is a process of internalization, the teachers at Ombuwa employed drill-and-practice and teacher-centered instruction. This is in direct contradiction to the student-centered pedagogical reforms mandated by the government of Namibia. Rosalia, a teacher with five years of teaching experience, made a comment that suggests that there is a discontinuity between her beliefs about teaching mathematics under the new regime and what actually transpired in the mathematics classroom during the apartheid era:

It quoted them as saying they had boarded a Chinese vessel, the 'Rouohe Rong Cheang', in Monrovia on 11 October. "They were discovered on the ship eight days later by the captain who threw them overboard with a raft," it said. They told officials a fourth companion had drowned. They were identified as Ghanaians Papa Kay August, 29, and Michael Appiah, 24, and a Liberan, Junitor Geay Moseroy, 17. It said August had been spotted off the coast by an aircraft on Saturday, which relayed his position to a maritime rescue boat. The other two, who had sought refuge on a small island off the coast were also picked up. The paper said all three were taken to hospital, discharged, and were now being held by police pending a decision by the immigration department on whether they should be deported.

Namibians belong to many different cultural groups. Notable examples are Herero women in distinctive Victorian-style dresses seen in many parts of the country, including Windhoek and other large towns. Also conspicuous are the Nama/ Damara, who speak with click sounds, Himba women with their intricate hairstyles and ornamental copper necklaces and anklets and the Bushmen or San, the last representatives of the hunter-gatherer tradition, currently emerging from ancient bush lore and legends to make the transition to modern society. The Owambo Owambo is a collective name for a number of tribes living in central northern Namibia and southern Angola. In about 1550 these tribes, which have a common origin and culture, moved southwards from the Great Lakes in East Africa and settled between the Kunene and Okavango rivers. Today four of the tribes live in the Kunene Province in southern Angola and eight in northern Namibia. The latter form the largest language group in the country. Numbering approximately 913 000, they represent just under 51% of Namibia's population.

Almost 365 sunny days a year, original fauna and flora, extraordinary examples of unusual geological formations and phenomena, breathtaking landscapes - all these make Namibia a popular tourist destination. Namibia derived its name from the Namib desert, which, in the language of the Nama tribe, means “a vast endless space”. Because of this Namibia is also called “the country of wide open spaces”. Namibia has excellent infrastructure. Its inland roads are tarred or gravel and in very good condition. The systems of power- and water supply, banking and insurance are as sophisticated as state-of-the-art European standards. Last but not least, clean streets and Africa’s lowest crime rate make this country an “African pearl” indeed, as Namibia is often glorified in magazines, books and mass media.
