520    This book describes the Nyae Nyae Village Schools, an 
       innovative and unique mother-tongue education initiative 
       set in north-eastern Namibia. Inspired by the optimism of 
       Independence, the project was designed in close 
       consultation with the Ju'hoansi community in the early 
       1990s. Drawing upon their traditional knowledge 
       transmission strategies, and initiated in a supportive 
       political environment, the project exemplified 'best 
       practice.' During the following two decades, the Village 
       Schools have transitioned from a donor-supported 'project'
       to government schools, and have received much attention 
       and support from donors, civil society organisations, 
       researchers, and others. However, the students still do 
       not seem to succeed in the mainstream schools. Why is 
       this? Based on long-term field-work in the region, 
       including interviews with Nyae Nyae residents over several
       years and work with involved organisations, the book 
       addresses this question. Contextualising the Village 
       Schools within post-Independence Namibia, southern African
       history and the global indigenous rights movement, it 
       examines the enormous paradoxes that schooling presents 
       for the Nyae Nyae community. 'Owners of Learning' is the 
       English translation of the Ju'hoansi word for 'teacher' 
       and it serves to highlight a fundamental question - to 
       whom does education belong?"
