A historic land restitution process offers new hope for Botswana's Indigenous San, per news.mongabay.com. The initiative aims to return traditional lands to the San people, who have long faced displacement and marginalization.

The movement is gaining momentum as local communities and advocacy groups rally behind the cause, according to a report by news.mongabay.com. The San's struggle for land rights reflects broader calls for Indigenous recognition across southern Africa.

The process is part of a growing trend toward acknowledging historical injustices in Botswana, with several NGOs and government bodies supporting the restitution efforts, as noted by the same source.
