Title A name given to the resource Friedrich Ebert Stiftung Description An account of the resource The Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) is the oldest of Germany’s ‘political foundations‘ and committed to the basic values of social democracy and the labour movement. As a private, non-profit educational institution, ‘think tank’ and platform for political dialogue, its mission is to promote democracy, development, social justice and peace through capacity-building, policy research, public dialogue and international exchange. FES carries out its international activities through a network of currently about 100 offices world-wide, in combination with its headquarters in <a href="http://www.fes.de/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Berlin and Bonn/Germany</a>and in close co-operation with its local and international partners. <a href="http://www.fesnam.org/contact.html">The FES office in Namibia</a> was established in 1989 on the eve of the Namibian independence. At present it is staffed with one expatriate and six local full-time employees. Before 1989, i.e. during South African apartheid rule in the then South West Africa, the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung had already supported in various ways those that struggled against white minority rule and for an independent and democratic Namibia. The establishment of an office was then just a logical step - based on requests by our political partners and motivated by the desire to firstly, support the transition to a non-racial multiparty-democracy and secondly, contribute to the transformation of the Namibian society into a prosperous and just society of equal rights, equal opportunities and a decent living for all.

Title A name given to the resource Social Justice and the responsibility of the State: The Triple Burden of Poverty, Inequality and Unemployment in Southern Africa Description An account of the resource Apart from presenting some interesting country case studies, these were the questions we tried to answer at the FES conference organised in February 2011 in Windhoek. Participants included representatives of governments and civil society from eight Southern African countries. In addition, various regional organisations dealing with social and economic issues participated as well. The case studies and new approaches were evaluated, focussing on their suitability for Southern Africa. The discussions brought up various fundamental questions about inequality, redistribution and social protection in Africa. Hence, this booklet is not a conference report but rather takes the deliberations as a starting point for general considerations and information on the topic. We hope to provide some thought-provoking ideas on redistribution, social protection and structural changes in Southern Africa and trust that this booklet will stimulate discussions on possible socio-economic and political changes in the region.
