- On August 23rd, the Dimawe Cultural Festival will take place in Manyana village, commemorating a significant moment in Botswana’s history, the 1852 Battle of Dimawe. This historic battle saw a powerful alliance of tribes including the Bahurutshe, Bangwaketse, Bakgatla, Bakwena, Balete, Barolong, and Batlhaping unite to resist Boer incursions. More than a cultural event, the festival serves as a living tribute to the spirit of unity, resilience, and cultural pride that defined the Botswana people’s fight for their land and dignity. This discussion will explore how the festival strengthens national identity, fosters inter-tribal solidarity, and educates younger generations about the sacrifices of their ancestors in the struggle against colonial aggression.

The alarming figures of Gender Based violence highlight the urgent need for intervention as the consequences of GBV extend even to children.
But for years now the fight against GBV has been mostly anchored by organizations and church leaders and for a change, now young people are taking it upon themselves to fight GBV.
The Abba's Will Foundation is launching the " I am a future Husband, A future Uncle: I will not be a GBV Statistic " campaign aimed at raising awareness about the impacts of GBV.
The initiative which engages Boys aged between 10 and 20 years old seeks to foster the culture of accountability, motivating and empowering young people as voices for change.

The National Prevalence of Excessive and Problem Gambling Study, recently released by the Gambling Authority, reveals that 36.6% of Batswana participate in gambling activities, both legally and illegally. Among these gamblers, 6.7% display excessive or problematic behavior, a figure that rises sharply to 12% in illegal gambling environments. Even more concerning, 20% of gamblers began before reaching the legal age of 21, highlighting the need for stronger youth protection measures. This discussion examines these troubling findings, exploring the social and economic impacts of widespread gambling participation. It also focuses on potential interventions aimed at curbing illegal gambling, raising public awareness and fostering a safer, more sustainable gambling sector in Botswana.

- COMPETITION AUTHORITY ACTS AMID PRICES SURGE BY SOME BUSINESSES
The Competition and Consumer Authority (CCA) has raised concerns over reports that some businesses are unjustifiably increasing prices following the recent adjustment of the Botswana Pula currency exchange rate.
To protect consumers, the CCA is conducting inspections and investigations to ensure compliance with pricing regulations, urging suppliers to maintain the integrity of displayed prices.
This discussion explores the wider impact of these pricing practices on consumers and the overall competitiveness of businesses in Botswana.
