Thesis (M.Dev. (Planning and Management)) -- University of Limpopo, 2022 / Development projects, including the Fetša Tlala Initiative, were designed to contribute to the
National Development Plan, 2030. The objectives of this research assessed how effective
the Fetša Tlala project was in improving food and nutrition security of women farmers and
the degree of empowerment the project afforded them. A semi-structured interview guide
was applied to 16 purposefully selected respondents during face-to-face interviews as the
data collection method. The findings indicated that physical resources provided to beneficiaries
contributed to the effectiveness of the project. However, the inconsistent institutional support provided
by the project initiators were considered to detract from the effectiveness. The findings also revealed
that the beneficiaries were empowered by the opportunities afforded through the initiative, but were
further empowered by their own resilience in the face of adversity. The study concludes by
recommending the continuation of the project with improved institutional support.
