Communities affected by the 1904–1908 Genocide hope to have the long-overdue negotiations finalised by the end of this year.

The four affected communities, the Ovahero, Nama, San, and Damara communities, said this at a media conference about the outcome of the Chiefs Meeting Forum held today.

This, they say, is to allow those affected to benefit from the joint declaration of more than 24 billion dollars in projects.
