    Safrica Page 1 of 42 Recent Reports Support HRW About HRW Site Map May 1995 Vol. 7, No.3 SOUTH AFRICA THREATS TO A NEW DEMOCRACY Continuing Violence in KwaZulu-Natal INTRODUCTION For the last decade South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region has been troubled by political violence. This conflict escalated during the four years of negotiations for a transition to democratic rule, and reached the status of a virtual civil war in the last months before the national elections of April 1994, significantly disrupting the election process. Although the first year of democratic government in South Africa has led to a decrease in the monthly death toll, the figures remain high enough to threaten the process of national reconstruction. In particular, violence may prevent the establishment of democratic local government structures in KwaZulu-Natal following further elections scheduled to be held on November 1, 1995. The basis of this violence remains the conflict between the African National Congress (ANC), now the leading party in the Government of National Unity, and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), the majority party within the new region of KwaZulu-Natal that replaced the former white province of Natal and the black homeland of KwaZulu. Although the IFP abandoned a boycott of the negotiations process and election campaign in order to participate in the April 1994 poll, following last minute concessions to its position, neither this decision nor the election itself finally resolved the points at issue. While the ANC has argued during the year since the election that the final constitutional arrangements for South Africa should include a relatively centralized government and the introduction of elected government structures at all levels, the IFP has maintained instead that South Africa's regions should form a federal system, and that the colonial tribal government structures should remain in place in the former homelands.

These include the declaration of “Bioregions” and the publication of “Bioregional Plans”. Bioregional plans are usually an output of a systematic spatial conservation assessment of a region. They identify areas of conservation priority, and constraints and opportunities for implementation of the plan. The precursor to a Bioregional Plan is a Biodiversity Sector Plan (BSP), which is the official reference for biodiversity priorities to be taken into account in land-use planning and decision-making by all sectors within the District Municipality. The overall aim is to avoid the loss of natural habitat in Critical Biodiversity Areas (CBAs) and prevent the degradation of Ecological Support Areas (ESAs), while encouraging sustainable development in Other Natural Areas.

  • 1. Socio-Economic Profile
    Zululand District Municipality Water Services Development Plan (DC26) Section 1: Socio-Economic Profile 1. SOCIO-ECONOMIC PROFILE The ZDM is the Water Services Authority (WSA) for the entire district in terms of Section 1 of the Water Services Act, 19971. In order to efficiently plan the development of water services in the DM’s jurisdictional area it is necessary to determine the existing or current situation with respect to water and sanitation supply. This Section presents and identifies, both visually and statistically, the physical and consumer profile within the DM. 1.1 Demographics The current consumer profile of the district is indicated in Table 1.1 (a) below: Table 1.1 (a): Current consumer profile (units) INDUSTRIAL / LOCAL MUNICIPALITIES DOMESTIC BUSINESSES FARM HOUSES TOTAL AbaQulusi 15 283 1 947 - 17 230 eDumbe 5 157 336 - 5 493 Nongoma 1 239 483 - 1 722 Ulundi 5 520 638 - 6 158 uPhongolo 3 557 576 - 4 133 Total (urban) 30 756 3 980 - 34 736 AbaQulusi 24 752 - 267 25 019 eDumbe 11 524 - 199 11 723 Nongoma 36 932 - - 36 932 Ulundi 31 803 - 42 31 845 uPhongolo 21 221 - 358 21 579 Total (rural) 126 232 - 866 127 098 Total 156 988 3 980 866 161 834 Present population and projected population growth rates: Population and economic growth rates are used to determine future developmental requirements within the ZDM. This determines the required increase or decrease in water services. Non-domestic consumer unit growth, particularly commercial, industrial and agricultural growth, also gives an indication of the expected increase in water demand and associated wastewater flow discharges.

    Moving Forward Prosperously Foreword A corporate identity is more than just a design image. It is an organisation’s unique character and a combination of its reputation, name, and organizational culture. It encapsulates the motto: “ the way we do things around here”.

The KwaZulu-Natal Department of Transport’s corporate identity reflects the dynamic nature and innovative credo of the organization. The Department prides itself as one of the leading lights in the field of effective service delivery to the people of KwaZulu-Natal and the new South Africa.

Article Re-reading the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi game reserve: constructions of a 'natural' space Shirley Brooks Introduction This paper provides a critical perspective on a South African landscape often viewed as an unproblematically 'natural' space: that is, the space of the (postcolonial) game reserve. The particular focus of the paper is the Hluhluwe-Umfolozi game reserve in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The Hluhluwe-Umfolozi reserve is the largest in the province, an amalgam of two game reserves, Umfolozi and Hluhluwe. Both these reserves were proclaimed in 1895 in the decade during which Zululand - ie the then recently conquered Zulu kingdom - fell under direct British imperial control. Nearly a hundred years later, in 1989, the two reserves were amalgamated to form a single park. This reserve remains one of the most popular tourist destinations in the KwaZulu-Natal province. Of the five 'reserved areas for game' declared in Zululand in 1895, Umfolozi and Hluhluwe are the only two to have survived in anything like their original form. They are also the oldest game reserves in Africa, predating by some years reserves set up in other parts of British Africa and the Transvaal (see Carruthers 1995). While nowhere near as large as the Kruger National Park, the combined extent of the Hluhluwe and Umfolozi parks at 96,453 hectares is substantial (Charlton-Perkins 1995).
