The Baháʼí Faith in Botswana begins after ʻAbdu'l-Bahá, then leader of the Baháʼí Faith, wrote letters encouraging taking the religion to Africa in 1916. The first Baháʼí pioneers arrived in Botswana about October 1954, where they befriended many Africans. The first election of Botswana's Baháʼí National Spiritual Assembly was in 1970. The 2001 national census counts approximately 700 Baháʼís. However, the Association of Religion Data Archives estimated some 16,500 Baháʼís in Botswana as of 2010.

  • A Fé Bahá'í no Botswana tem início em 1954 com o casal canadense John e Audrey Robarts, que levam a religião para o então Protetorado da Bechuanalândia e convertem James e Stella Moncho, os primeiros bahá'ís locais. Em 1970, a Assembleia Espiritual Nacional Bahá'í do Botswana é fundada. A Association of Religion Data Archives estima que em 2005 existiam 16.000 bahá'ís no Botswana. O número de fiéis tem aumentado em parte devido à imigração de iranianos para o país, que atuam em negócios. (pt)
