Rosemary Jane Tuauana Katjavivi (1952 – 9 August 2022) was an English-born Namibian author, publisher and editor.

Katjavivi worked with the South West Africa People's Organisation (SWAPO) in London, and was centrally involved in Namibian publishing organizations and institutions. She is credited with an "outstanding role" in helping to develop publishing in the Namibian language and preserve Namibian literature. She made it possible for Namibians to read important works that could not have been published or legally read under the Apartheid regime. Her papers are stored in the National Archives of Namibia.
