Narrating psychosocial experiences and coping strategies of female Informal traders at TshakhumaSeshibedi, Nthambeleni Dahlia 01 1900 (has links)
Women entrepreneurs in the formal or informal sector continue to encounter social,
psychological, political, and religious-related challenges, inhibiting their functioning.
Consequently, this study explored the psychosocial experiences affecting the informal female
traders at Tshakhuma fruit market in Limpopo, South Africa and the coping strategies
employed to mitigate psychosocial experiences. The study adopted an interpretivism
approach and applied a qualitative methodology and narrative design. Seven informal female
traders shared their psychosocial experiences and coping strategies through stories and were
collected using unstructured interviews. The narrative thematic analysis was used to analyse
the interviews, and psychosocial experiences and coping strategies themes are developed.
The family, work environment, and sociocultural social systems guided the psychosocial
experiences themes. Lazarus and Folkman informed the coping strategies themes. The
findings provided some understanding of women's entrepreneurship in the informal sector,
but the findings cannot be extended in another context / Psychology / M.A. Psychology

The Swiss Missionaries' educational endeavour as a means for social transformation in South Africa (1873-1975)Masumbe, Benneth Mhlakaza Chabalala 06 1900 (has links)
This research traces the developments in Europe that led to a rush for foreign missions i
different parts of the world, with specific reference to South Africa. It describes the operations
of the Swiss missionaries in South Africa from 1873 to 1975. This study also evaluates the motives
for the evangelization of the African masses, and contradictions th existed in the relations that
missionaries had with proselytes during the period under review. The sterling contributions of
black evangelists in this period are demonstrated. It cannot be denied that the Swiss missionaries
did a lot of good to the indigenous populac of South Africa-the importance of their services at
Lemana Training Institution (1906) and Elim Hospital (1899) are indelibly inscribed in our
historiography. They should also applauded for their response to the plight of the Shangaans, who
had for reasons unkno
to the researcher been by-passed by other missions during the "scramble for mission fields". But
the missionaries also had their shortcomings, for instance their failure to ind the state to remove
capital punishment from the statute books. They may nonetheless stil continue to be used by the
present government of South Africa to assist in carrying the social transformation process forward. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (History of Education)
