Vyf Rand is an informal settlement outside of Okahandja,[1] [2] located north of Windhoek in the Okahandja constituency of the Otjozondjupa region of Namibia. "Vyf rand" is an Afrikaans phrase that translates to "five rand".[3] The name originates from the initial rental fee of five rand per month tenant farmers paid for a small plot of land on large farms in Namibia.[4]
Home of one of the poorest communities in Namibia, Vyf Rand camp has been the focus of various social projects: a primary school, a soup kitchen, and HIV/AIDS awareness programs.[5]
The settlement was a filming location for Where Others Wavered, a film about the life of Sam Nujoma – Namibia's first president – touted as "one of the country's most ambitious film projects".[6]
