'Unite to boost your bargaining power'

At a panel discussion organised by the Botswana Sectors of Educators Union (BOSETU) at Andasonia Hotel on Tuesday evening, speakers representing various political organisations said teachers' unions should instead train their guns on the employer.

The panel discussion was held under the theme, Social Dialogue: A remedy to Challenges in the Education Sector.
Botswana People's Party (BPP) vice-president Kumbulani William acknowledged that teachers have made strides in their fight for improved conditions, but warned that divisions among teachers unions have the potential to derail such progress.
