This poster was developed collaboratively with mother tongue speakers of Ju|'hoansi, an endangered Ju language spoken in Namibia and Botswana.

The purpose of the poster is to share indigenous knowledge about food plants as used by the Ju|'hoansi in the Tsumkwe area of the Nyae Naye conservancy in Namibia.

This poster is bilingual Ju|'hoansi and English in order to facilitate mother tongue education and incorporate the national language of Namibia, English. There are two versions of this poster, 1) the pdf with embedded sound clips, intended to be used online 2) the pdf with QR codes for the sound clips - intended as a print version.

To hear the audio of the QR codes: Please scan with a QR reader from any smart device.

All audio recordings were done by a mother tongue speaker and translator, Fridrik |Kunta. Artwork and layout, Nicola Poulos. Consulting linguist and project coordinator Dr Kerry Jones. Director of African Tongue, Postdoctoral Researcher for Rhodes University and Research Associate at Stellenbosch University.
