Die gereedheid van die informele nedersettingsgemeenskap van Finetown vir gemeenskapsfasiliteringVermaak, Nicolaas Jakobus 05 August 2014 (has links)
M.A. (Development Studies) / This investigation was conducted in a transitional phase of South Africa's political dispensation. The emphasis on "transformation" in the new dispensation, promises to have far-reaching consequences for the development of people in communities. The achievement of the obj ectives of the community development approach, which is currently being used in South Africa as a development strategy, can lead to a better quality of life for people living in informal settlements (squatter communities) if communi ty development (as a development strategy) is applied succesfully. Against this background, a study was conducted in Finetown (see location map : annexture 1) on which this inquiry is especially focussing. In the second instance, Finetown serves as an example of an informal settlement, in the hope of general ising some of the findings and recommendations. Two readiness models for community development, in particular the model of Levi and Litwin (1986 : 31-35) as well as the model of Conyers and Raul (1990 : 127-138) is used as the study's starting point. The readiness indicators that could be identified from the literature study, was applied on two groups of respondents (namely the facilitators and the members of the Finetown communi ty). The findings of the literature study are thus compared to the investigation in Finetown to firstly, "place" Finetown on a readiness scale and, secondly, expand the available knowledge of a "readiness model" for community facilitating in such communities. This investigation is therefore based on a literature study,questionnaires, informal interviewing and observations in Finetown. These sources of data are used to compare the objectives of the community development strategy with the community's current perceptions of community development. The researcher comes to the conclusion that, allthough both the community facilitators and the community perceive the readiness indicators as relevant for the community's development, the former cherishes higher expectations about the indicators than the latter. The main objective of this study was thus to, firstly, identify indicators for community development and, secondly, test them in Finetown. Thirdly, additional indicators were identified for inclosure with the existing indicators. Hereby a contribution is hopefully made to the eventual development of a model which could be used to evaluate the level of readiness of communities for community development and through which a more effective use of scarce recources for development can be made

An investigation into the role of municipalities in the local economic development of rural communities : a case study of the Itlhabolole waste management and vegetables project and Mmabatho youth development cooperative project in the Mafikeng local municipality / Matome Floyd NgwanaNgwana, Matome Floyd January 2011 (has links)
In their essence Local Economic Development (LED) and Integrated
Development Plan (IDP) were designed to policy options for municipalities to
meet their constitutional obligations of enhancing socio-economic development of
communities. The LED in Mafikeng Local Municipality (MLM) is designed to
enhance socio-economic development of the MLM community through focusing
on job creation to fight and alleviate poverty in the municipality. This dissertation
reviews the LED policy of the MLM and reviews the two projects which are
namely the ltlhabolole Waste Management and Vegetable project and Mmabatho
Youth Development Cooperative (MYDC) (car wash) project in the context of the
LED policy of the MLM.
The dissertation critically analyses the strategies and programmes put in place by
the MLM to implement these two initiatives projects. Questions on whether the
MLM involves other stakeholders in the planning and implementation of LED and
what are the challenges encountered by the MLM in the implementation of its
LED projects and whether those projects are sustainable or not, are answered in
this dissertation. This dissertation discovers that both the ltlhabolole Waste
Management and Vegetable project and Mmabatho Youth Development
Cooperative (MYDC) have achieved one of the core objectives of LED which is
job creation, despite the fact that only an insignificant number of people are
employed in these projects.
