Kalahari ground tuber is very important in our lives. It is known for many purposes and used in such a way that it helps the San people. It has three purposes:
- One is that it is used for food.
- It is also used for water purpose and
- Finally for medicine.
Some other parts of the plant are reburied so that it can grow again and be resourceful to others. We respect the plant for life giving purposes.

I’m a native speaker of Naro from Botswana’s Ghanzi District. I’m a defender of of Indigenous rights and a strong supporter of inclusive social policy. As a young person from a very marginalized group, I have grown to understand the importance of culture in todays society. Whereas I know that change is inevitable, without the knowledge of where you come from and ideals that you represent, can bring harm to the very fight of the right to self-determination. I support all those who advocate towards them.
