dbo:abstract
  • The Botswana Movement for Democracy (BMD) is an opposition political party in Botswana established in 2010 by MPs and other politicians who split from the ruling Botswana Democratic Party over differences with Ian Khama, the BDP's leader and President of Botswana. It was the first party to split from the BDP, which has ruled Botswana since independence in 1966. Its original leader was Gomolemo Motswaledi, elected on May 2, 2011 at the party's inaugural congress. , currently MP for Gaborone West South constituency and the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, was elected as party Vice President. , who had been serving as the party's Public Relation's Officer since its formation, lost his bid for Party President to Motswaledi. According to the Preamble of the Constitution of the BMD, the party was founded "to defend and advance the rights of the peoples of Botswana during and in order to interrupt and reverse the progressive destruction of their independence and the creation of what, by most accounts, threatens to be an authoritarian government". The document goes on to stress that is aims to remove the current "undemocratic" government of Botswana "through constitutional and democratic means" with the aim of restoring and promoting "a united, non-racial, non-sexist and democratic Botswana."

  • De Botswana Democractic Movement (Nederlands: Botswana Democratische Beweging; afk.: BDM) is een politieke partij in Botswana die in 2010 werd opgericht. De partij is voortgekomen uit de Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) die al sinds de onafhankelijkheid van het land in 1966 aan de macht is. De oprichters waren ontevreden over de in hun ogen autoritaire koers van Ian Khama (BDP) die van 2008 tot 2018 het ambt van president van de republiek bekleedde. Het was de eerste keer in de geschiedenis van de BDP dat er een afscheiding plaatsvond binnen die partij. Bij de verkiezingen van 2014 behaalde de BDM 2 zetels in de Nationale Vergadering als onderdeel van de politieke alliantie Umbrella for Democratic Change. Deze zetels gingen bij de verkiezingen van 2019 allebei verloren. De BDM is aangesloten bij het Afrikaanse Liberale Netwerk. (nl)
