Oshindobe is a village situated in northern part of Namibia in the Ohangwena Region. The village is named after the lake called Ondobe during its discovery, an elderly revealed. It is situated on the very edge of the Owambo region (sometimes called the '4 O's region'). Oshindobe is located on the Cuvelai-Etosha basin which is part of transboundary catchment shared by Angola and Namibia. The climate in this village is semi-arid and impacted by high rainfall variability which leads to regular droughts and floods. The two main sources of water for this region emanate from Angola: from the upper part of the Cuvelai Basin, and pipe water line (Epumbu-Omadenga water pipeline) which occasionally provides drinking water.

  • Oshindobe is a village situated in northern part of Namibia in the Ohangwena Region. The village is named after the lake called Ondobe during its discovery, an elderly revealed. It is situated on the very edge of the Owambo region (sometimes called the '4 O's region'). Oshindobe is located on the Cuvelai-Etosha basin which is part of transboundary catchment shared by Angola and Namibia. The climate in this village is semi-arid and impacted by high rainfall variability which leads to regular droughts and floods. The two main sources of water for this region emanate from Angola: from the upper part of the Cuvelai Basin, and pipe water line (Epumbu-Omadenga water pipeline) which occasionally provides drinking water. In most cases people are dependent on hand-dug wells and 'omifimas' (i.e Omufima wa tate Namwenyo, Omufima wa tatekulu Hashiti and many more) and seasonal flows of shallow water (Efundja) in Oshana (Oshana sha shaNguulu) between Oshindobe Village and Eengwena. Community people of Oshindobe village and Eengwena village in 1992 managed to dig a lake between these two villages that will store water until next rain season although this lake faces higher evaporation rates. The Oshindobe village is also faced with soil degradation, loss of grazing area, and unequal land distribution. The first thing that is unique about this village is the abundance of people, unlike the rest of the country. People, livestock, shebeens (bars) and markets are everywhere, seemingly all existing harmoniously in an unplanned order. (en)
