Effective representation in Botswana: a guideline for political representatives

This booklet is based on a workshop on the topic of Effective Representation in Botswana held on 7-8 November 1997 in Gaborone. The workshop was organised by Emang Basadi and the Botswana Caucus of Women in Politics (BCWP) and attended by women parliamentary and council representatives from different political parties in Botswana. The author, Dr. Patrick Molutsi of the University of Botswana, would like to extend his gratitude to the chairperson of the Caucus, the Honourable Minister of Local Government, Lands and Housing, Mrs. Margaret Nasha, MP, and her Committee for their guidance in the workshop and during the write up of this manuscript. I also wish to express my appreciation to a number of individuals who made the two-day workshop on effective representation of a success. I wish particularly to mention Dr. Peter Oesterdiekhoff of the FES for the financial and professional contribution to the editing of the booklet and thank Emang Basadi for providing the usual professional and technical support.
