The development impact of the domestic workers skills development project on its participantsWessels, Tersia Susara 31 December 2006 (has links)
The Domestic Workers Skills Development Project, funded by the National Skills
Fund, was designed to improve the skill levels of domestic workers in South Africa. It
also was intended to address their historical lack of education and to advance their
socio-economic circumstances.
This study investigates the implementation of this project within the framework of
community development. Basadi Pele Foundation, a Non-Governmental Organisation,
was a participant in this project. The central question was how to empower
marginalised women through skills development. This implies a learning process for
domestic workers and all involved.
Different learning theories are investigated to develop an understanding of how these
illiterate adult women learned during this opportunity.
The conclusion reached by this study is that a gender sensitive environment, created
by government institutions and the NGO involved, enabled domestic workers to
change their lives and circumstances; enhancing this project and contributing to its
success. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies)
