The Port Elizabeth Metropole As a Case Study
Industrial development as an effective local economic development strategy: The Port Elizabeth metropole as a case study (Work In Progress) In light of the performance of the Italian districts, and as if to compensate for decades of neglect, the local area is making a comeback as a new paradigm of industrial development (Ganne, in Scott and Storper, 1992:216).

In particular, the focus is on local economic development and its association with industrial strategy. The case study of the Port Elizabeth metropole1 is used to illustrate the question of industrial development as an effective local economic development strategy. Since the early 1980s, there have been changes in the local economic development (LED) literature. -
Local Economic Development Through Small Businesses in Dimbaza
LOCAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT THROUGH SMALL BUSINESSES IN DIMBAZA By Sixolile Gantsho (212235222) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Arts degree (MA): Economics Research In the Faculty of Business and Economic Sciences Of the Nelson Mandela University August 2019 Supervisor: Professor Ronney Ncwadi ABSTRACT This study was conducted in Dimbaza, a small town outside of King Williams Town. Dimbaza was created as a resettlement township during Apartheid in 1967. The study investigated local economic development through small businesses. The study described the state of the small business sector, it presented the contribution this sector has towards employment creation and income generation. Furthermore, it investigated the challenges that the small business sector in Dimbaza faces and the level of responsiveness from the local authorities in Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality which Dimbaza falls under. The study was conducted using a survey questionnaire which was administered to small business entrepreneurs. Furthermore, a focus group with small business owners and semi-structured interviews were conducted with officials from the Buffalo City Metropolitan Municipality in the Business Development and Local Economic Development Directorate. The findings of the study suggest that Dimbaza has a large informal economy which has of survivalist entrepreneurs with small and micro businesses. It is evident from the study that the small business sector in Dimbaza is facing the following challenges: 1) No access to funding opportunities, 2) a lack of infrastructure, 3) lack of proper running water and electricity and 4) lack of economic development programmes from the municipality. There is a dire need for the intervention of local authorities in the small business sector in Dimbaza. -

Buffalo City Municipality State of Energy Report Table of Contents
BUFFALO CITY MUNICIPALITY SSSTTTAAATTTEEE OOOFFF EEENNNEEERRRGGGYYY RRREEEPPPOOORRRTTT J28015 September 2008 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Importance of Sustainable Energy to BCM South African cities are key players in facilitating national sustainable energy policy and legislative objectives. The 15 largest cities in South Africa take up 3% of the country’s surface area, and yet they are responsible for 40% of the country’s energy consumption. This means that cities must play a major role in facilitating the achievement of national sustainable energy targets (for example the national target of 12% energy efficiency by 2014). Buffalo City, being among the nine largest cities in South Africa, and the second largest in the Eastern Cape, must ensure that it participates in, and takes responsibility for, energy issues affecting both its own population, and that of the country as a whole. Issues associated with the availability and use of energy in South Africa and the Eastern Cape are more pressing than ever before. Some of the more urgent considerations are related to the following: Climate Change: Scientific evidence shows without doubt that the earth’s atmosphere has been heating up for the past century (global warming), and that this heating is due to greenhouse gas emissions from the burning of the fossil fuels (such as coal and oil products) from which we derive our energy. Some impacts of climate change that scientists have predicted will affect Southern Africa (including BCM) are: • More disasters related to severe weather events; • Longer and drier dry periods, leading to drought; • More runaway fires; • More intense flooding; • Sea-level rise; • Threats to food security and human health; • Loss of biodiversity; • Water supply problems; and • Related economic impacts Climate change is already causing negative impacts on people and ecosystems in South Africa. -
