'''Watwa''' (pia: '''Batwa''', '''Cwa''') ni [[kundi]] la [[wabilikimo]] wa [[Afrika ya Kati]] ([[Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasia ya Kongo]], [[Burundi]], [[Rwanda]], [[Uganda]]), lakini pia [[Zambia]], [[Angola]], [[Namibia]] na [[Botswana]] ambao wanaishi kwa kushirikiana na majirani wao wa [[makabila]] ya [[Bantu|Kibantu]].

[[Historia|Kihistoria]] inafikiriwa kwamba ndio wakazi asili ya [[misitu]] ya eneo hilo kabla ya [[uvamizi]] wa [[wakulima]]<ref>[[Jan Vansina|Vansina]] argues that the original meaning of the ([[Proto-Bantu]]) word ''*twa'' was "[[hunter-gatherer]], bushpeople", alongside ''yaka'' used for the western (Mbuti) pygmies (''[[Bayaka]]'')</ref><ref name="vansina">{{cite book |last1=Vansina |first1=Jan |title=Paths in the rainforests : toward a history of political tradition in equatorial Africa |date=October 1990 |publisher=University of Wisconsin Press |isbn=978-0-299-12574-5}}</ref>

Kwa kiasi kikubwa Watwa wamemezwa na makabila hayo ya Kibantu, kwa mfano katika [[Tanzania]] ya leo.
