Researchers including Kathryn Watt, a Research Manager at the Asenze Project at South Africa's University of KwaZulu-Natal studied the relationship between interventions and the way people’s lives develop in adverse contexts.

In their paper, they compare the different effects of directing development assistance: improving girls’ school enrolment, prioritising schooling for both girls and boys, and addressing barriers to gender equality throughout life.

Their findings suggest that the current focus on girls’ schooling may both unintentionally disadvantage boys and be a relatively inefficient means of advancing gender equality.

Botswana’s national election this Wednesday will see incumbent President Mokgweetsi Masisi of the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) face three challengers who will be looking to upstage him.

Masisi, in power since 2018, seeks a second term and is the favourite, bolstered by a new diamond sales deal with De Beers.

However, his tenure has been marked by economic challenges, and he has faced criticism for not diversifying the economy enough or creating sufficient jobs.

In its manifesto, the Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) is calling for “change”.

In a BBC article, journalists Innocent Selatlhwa and Damian Zane say this is an acknowledgement that things need to be done differently in the Southern African country.
