A Resource Guide to Housing in South Africa 1994 - 2010

SERI’s recently published housing guide entitled “A Resource Guide to Housing in South Africa 1994 - 2010: Legislation, Policy, Programmes and Practice”, which provides a simplified yet comprehensive guide to policies, legislation, jurisprudence and practice in relation to urban housing in South Africa. It is hopefully useful to a wide audience that includes social movements, community-based organisations (CBOs), NGOs, lawyers, development practitioners, planners, government officials, academics, scholars etc. Please feel free to distribute to your wider networks.

The resource guide is also available on SERI’s website at www.seri-sa.org and there will be hard copies available at the end of next week. For any queries on the guide or to discuss accessing hard copies, please email me.

Also recently published is a SERI research report by Blessing Karumbidza entitled “Criminalising the Livelihoods of the Poor: The impact of formalising informal trading on female and migrant traders in Durban” – also available on the SERI website.
