CULTURE: Codification Of Customs In Swaziland
By Joyce Barrett MBABANE, Nov 24 (IPS) - Swaziland's absolute monarchy is in the midst of reconciling centuries-old custom and tradition with modern practice, an undertaking women's advocates fear could stunt progress women are making in advancing their rights. The ambitious codification effort includes everything from citizenship rights to marriage and criminal law and is part of the kingdom's look at whether to adopt a constitution and subsequently weaken the authority the monarchy wields in this land-locked country sandwiched between South Africa and Mozambique. If government decides to pursue a constitutional monarchy, then portions of the customary law could be adopted as part of the constitution. ''As long as it's not written down, we can manoeuver around it,'' says Zakhe Hlanze, research associate with the advocacy group, Women and Law in Southern Africa about the reams of customary law applicable to women. Maureen Magwaza, program officer for Women in Law and Development in Africa, also fears the codification effort. ''Our customs have evolved with time,'' Magwaza says. ''Which aspects of the custom will be codified?''

Namibia Tourism Attractions
Namibia is remarkable and unique. It has one of the lowest population densities in the world and bizarre desert scenery. Huge sand dunes, dry desert mountains, and amazing plant and animal life are some of the highlights. Etosha Game Park is one of the best game parks in Southern Africa. It is home to many lions, rhinos, elephants, buffalo and hippos. All sorts of less well known but equally interesting creatures (like bat-eared foxes and honey badgers) are also found there. The peoples of Namibia are diverse and interesting. They include one of the oldest cultures on earth: the San or "Bushman" peoples. The German colonization of Namibia has resulted in a peculiar cultural mix. Parts of the country still have a fascinating German colonial atmosphere and culture.

Swaziland is a small country of just over 1700 square kilometres, but it includes a great range in altitude, from about 120 m in the east to over 1860 m in the north west. It also has diverse geology and corresponding soils, and the climate varies considerably from one side of the country to the other, with annual rainfall figures varying from 500 to over 1500 mm, with much of the rain falling during the summer months.

Swaziland
By James Hall
Africanews
January, 2003
Swazis have always taken pride in their nation’s preservation of traditional life, from the small matters of daily living to national governance by sub-Saharan Africa’s only king to rule a country. There is good reason for such pride. Other African people may lament that their traditions, languages and way of life face extinction in the face of modernity, but Swazis have always taken comfort in a cultural conservation that makes them almost unique on a changing continent. This is the flip side to news stories of political controversy that appear with increasing frequency out of this small nation, where less than one million people live. The landlocked kingdom has a long memory, and leadership is pursuing a land-return programme to obtain areas given by 19th century colonial British authorities to South Africa. If successful, the monarchy would extend to the Indian Ocean, over what is now Kwa Zulu Natal. "That will never happen, because those people of South Africa would never go back to become subjects of the monarch after living a decade as citizens of a democracy," political activist Obed Dlamini told Africanews.

Kings, queens, and princes, wild beasts and exotic birds Shawn and I have traveled to the land of fairytales! Swaziland, the smallest country in the Southern Hemisphere and one of the few absolute monarchies left in the world, is definitely magical. When the people speak, it is as if they are singing. Their native language, Siswati, is quick and bouncing, like a gazelle or a hip-hop song. But when they speak English, which most do, it is slower and more melodic. The words they choose in English are like poetry, a small indication of the richness of their language to non-Siswati speakers like me. For example, today I asked a man on the street for directions to the Post Office. His reply went something like this: "You move straight, do not turn, until you reach the place where the water bubbles up from the ground. Then you will move left, down the hill." I wandered off smiling, entertained by visions of a mountain spring here in the middle of the city of

Swaziland: Rich in History and Smiles
With only 17,364 square kilometers (about 11,000 square miles) of land, Swaziland is the smallest country in the southern hemisphere. Abeja and I can confirm this, since we took a bus halfway across the country - from the South African border to Mbabane, the capital - in less than 3 hours. We were excited to be visiting such a small and mysterious country since neither of us had met anyone who had ever been to Swaziland before. We learned that Swaziland, despite its size, is a culturally rich and unique country with plenty of friendly people, beautiful scenery and a fascinating history. This part of Africa has been inhabited for more than 100,000 years. Its current residents, however, are descendents of the Nguni tribe, which, came down to this area from the north in the 1600's. The Nguni quickly took over a large area, but over time found themselves being closed into a progressively smaller area by other groups of people. King Ngwane III, leader of the Nguni when they settled in this area, is now considered to be the first King of Swaziland. The following King, Sobhuza I had to face an even greater threat to the kingdom from the conquering Zulus, and though he married two of Shaka Zulu's daughters

Mr.Hostetter
I grew up in Swaziland , Southern Africa from 1983-1994 as a third culture kid. From the age of five through sixteen, I experienced life in the African culture. I learned to relate to people from different cultures especially since there were 50 different countries represented at my high school. I was lucky to have the opportunity to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro , the highest mountain in Africa, and the highest freestanding mountain in the world in July 1994! Swaziland is a kingdom. Siswati (similar to Zulu) as well as English were the languages spoken in Swaziland. I grew up learning English as well as Siswati. You are welcome to try and learn Zulu at this link: http://www.quia.com/dir/zulu/ -Janet S. Wong (2000) Virginia Tech University . I love incorporating games, powerpoints, projects, and hands-on manipulatives to make learning more fun. Technology is a tool that can be used to aid students in becoming constructivist learners that are ready to tackle the critical problem-solving they will find at their jobs. One of my objectives is to incorporate the National Education Technology Standards (NETS) into my lessons.

African Culture and Personality: A Reply to D. A. Masolo
James E. Lassiter
I read with great interest Professor D. A. Masolo's response to my article on African culture and personality (see Masolo 1999 and Lassiter 1999 I fully welcome comment and criticism on the issues raised in my paper and am happy that scholars such as Masolo are responding. I believe that the issues raised in my paper are very important for the future of African studies and culture and personality inquiry in the social sciences. Therefore, given the nature of Masolo's comments, I believe a full and detailed reply is called for. Let me begin by briefly summarizing my paper's main themes which were unfortunately either misrepresented or ignored by Masolo: African scholars outside the social sciences continue to identify and analyze what they believe are broad psychological and cultural patterns and processes in sub-Saharan Africa. They do so despite the lack of interest in or support for such lines of scholarly inquiry within the social sciences. Although the African scholars' use of social science terminology and concepts is sometimes questionable and their opinions and propositions are not always tied to historical and ethnographic data, most of their insights and arguments are well reasoned and compelling.

View Reports From Current / Past Trips Bruce Wilkinson, author of "The Prayer of Jabez" Ministry Detail Project Overview: Never Ending Garden trips are a faith-based initiative meeting the needs of the hungry in sub-Sahara Africa through the planting of Never Ending Gardens. This trip is offered in partnership between Adventures In Missions and Dream for Africa, a ministry of Dr. Bruce Wilkinson. Ministry Description: This team will assist the indigenous planters and trainers to plant new NEGs for family who are joining the movement. A Never-Ending Garden (NEG) is a proven method for the families of Africa to produce their own food in spite of the poor economy, unpredictable weather, and the escalating crisis of AIDS. Each family who elects to be a part of the NEG movement joins a community-wide organization that trains them to plant and harvest their gardens and oversees their progress twice a week throughout the year to ensure success. The NEG approach is to increase the number of plants that a family grows each season according to the degree that they are responsible. Each family begins with two mini-gardens the size of a front door and can continue to increase the number of mini-gardens every four months. Within one year, the average family will harvest five mini-gardens every season.
