Botswana Preperation and Research

Botswana, officially the Republic of Botswana (Tswana: Lefatshe la Botswana), is a landlocked country located in Southern Africa. The citizens refer to themselves as "Batswana" (singular: Motswana), but many English-language sources use "Botswanan" instead. Formerly the British protectorateof Bechuanaland, Botswana adopted its new name after becoming independent within the commonwealth on 30 September 1966. It has held free and fair democratic elections since independence.



In the next few weeks I will be going on a trip around Africa. I am going to use the time before the trip to experiment with more medias and ways of working as well as researching into African women and the culture they live in. I think this will be a very interesting project to work with as so far I have looked how into women are represented within different ages and sizes, but not cultures.
