ABOUT TSHIMOLOGO
Science starts with a question.
WHO WE ARE
Botswana's science publication.
TSHIMOLOGO is an editorial publication focused on the science, research, people and ideas shaping Botswana. We connect scientific work to the questions readers actually ask: what was discovered, who is doing the work, why it matters and what happens next.
Our name speaks to origin and beginnings. That idea guides the publication: start with the question, trace the evidence, and make complex knowledge understandable without stripping away its meaning.
WHAT WE COVER
Science across Botswana's changing world.
Our six editorial subjects organise the publication while Topics, People, Research and Institutions connect stories across disciplines.
HOW WE WORK
Clear science. Visible sources. Connected knowledge.
Evidence first
Stories are built around research, authoritative sources and verifiable information. Where a claim is uncertain or developing, the writing should make that clear.
Botswana in context
Botswana is the publication's default perspective. Local work is connected to the wider African and global scientific conversation without treating Botswana as a side section.
Understandable, not simplified away
We explain technical ideas in plain language, use familiar comparisons where useful, and preserve the limits, uncertainty and context of the underlying science.
Responsible publishing
Editorial images, credits, permissions and subject consent are managed as part of the publication workflow, alongside scientific review and source records where appropriate.
EXPLORE
More than a collection of articles.
TSHIMOLOGO links the people doing the work, the research itself and the institutions supporting it so readers can move from a story to its scientific context.
