Home › Botswana government in the dock over 'human right to water' Globalisation and Development Race and Identity News Brief botswana ... World News By staff writers 2 Jun 2010 Kalahari Bushmen are taking the government of Botswana to court over what they describe as its refusal to allow them access to a water borehole on their own land. They say that they have made many attempts to negotiate with the government over the issue before initiating the court case “to assert their basic human right to water”. The borehole was capped when the Bushmen were evicted from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve in 2002. Four years later, Botswana’s High Court ruled that the eviction had been unconstitutional and hundreds of Bushmen have since gone back home. But the Bushmen are still denied access to the water borehole, which they insist is their own source of water in the Reserve.

The relatively high quality of Botswana's statistics means that this figure is likely to be quite accurate. Growth in private sector employment has averaged about 10% per annum over Botswana's first 30 years of independence. The government has consistently maintained budget surpluses and has extensive foreign exchange reserves. Botswana's impressive economic record has been built on a foundation of diamond mining, prudent fiscal policies, international financial and technical assistance, and a cautious foreign policy. It is rated the least corrupt country in Africa, according to an international corruption watchdog, Transparency International.
