Dr Kefilwe Selema- BDU President
Welcome Fellow comrades!
Botswana Doctors Union exists to represent, supports and negotiates on behalf of all Medical Doctors, Dentists and allied health professionals in Botswana. As the current President I, together with the rest of my executive have vowed to put our all into achieving the goals of the Union. We are committed to representing our peers in advocating better wages and working conditions.
We are committed to protecting Doctors from all forms of abuse and promoting healthy working relationships between our members and their employers. We will strive to protect the integrity of the medical profession while also promoting medical research in Botswana.
We have already done so much within the first 3 years of registering the Union and with our growing membership we will use our numbers as a collective bargaining chip to get better benefits for our members.
I therefore urge all potential members to enroll with our Union as our Voice will be much louder through our numbers.
