Survival targets Botswana movie

The film, part sponsored by the Ministry of Environment, Wildlife and Tourism, is scheduled to screen today in South Bank, London, in a screening that will include selected guests, most of whom are involved in the tourism sector.

Survival has been a campaigner for Basarwa rights for years. A marathon court case between Basarwa and government over the relocation of Basarwa from the Central Kalahari Game Reserve culminated with the High Court declaring the relocations illegal. In a statement released yesterday the NGO indicates that it will bring to the international audience the adverse effect of the relocation on Basarwa.
