Africa from A-Z: Botswana

.
I do wonder what it would be like to live and work in a country such as
Botswana
whose
population
is the size of Bamako, the capital city in Mali where I recently lived (and plan on soon returning!). The lady who writes this
blog
knows! This
one
, too! With the
Kalahari Desert
,
Chobe National Park
and the
Okavango Delta
- there is a lot to
explore!
Survival International
is a not-for-profit that seeks to protect the rights of tribal people around the world - including those in
Botswana
being displaced by the pursuit of diamonds. A
PCV blog
in Botswana.
Botswana has a
stock market
and
this
looks like a neat site to follow if you are interested in business in Africa. There soon may be a
railway
cutting through Zimbabwe and Mozambique or Namibia. Controversial sounding but exciting! The
American ambassador to Botswana
sounds like a real gem! She recently made a tour of the country and visited with local leaders and NGOs including
Women Against Rape
which sounds like a powerful organization.
Anyone ever visited? What's your favorite thing about Botswana?
