Population trends of seabirds breeding in South Africa’s Eastern Cape and the possible influence of anthropogenic and environmental change. Marine Ornithology 37: 159–174. Eleven species of seabird breed in South Africa’s Eastern Cape Province. Numbers of African Penguin Spheniscus demersus and Cape Gannet Morus capensis in the province increased in the 20th century, but penguins decreased in the early 21st century. A recent eastward displacement of Sardine Sardinops sagax off South Africa increased the availability of this food source to gannets but did not benefit penguins, which have a shorter foraging range. Fishing and harbour developments may have influenced the recent decrease of penguins.

  • Xenophobia Outsider Exclusion Addressing Frail Social Cohesion in South Africa's Diverse CommuniEs
    Xenophobia Outsider Exclusion Addressing Frail Social Cohesion in South Africa's Diverse Communies Grahamstown Case Study October 2017 I. Executive Summary Grahamstown is physically divided along socioeconomic and racial lines in that residents of Grahamstown East are relatively poor whereas those who live Grahamstown West are relatively well off. Grahamstown does not have a history of xenophobic violence, and as a result, its residents were shocked at the collective violence against foreign nationals in October 2015. After the incident, community members cited the shortcomings of local leadership to act, and to some extent police capacity. The SAPS had been unable to dispel rumours that implicated foreign nationals in murder, which gave room for people with personal motives to manipulate a misinformed and fearful community into collective violence against foreign nationals. Young males, who lack employment opportunities and other meaningful activities, were identified by many as the perpetrators of such violence. While there is clearly a strong desire in the community of Grahamstown to have foreign nationals present, it seems that this is at least in part motivated by economic benefit. In this community, foreign nationals own spaza shops and often provide locals with groceries on credit. Despite these ‘business relations’, the findings suggest that there is no conscious effort from local community members and authorities to make foreign nationals part of the community at a deeper level, and as such foreign nationals tend to be excluded and exclude themselves from many community activities and processes. The current existing narrative in relation to service delivery and social ills in Grahamstown is that government, in its many spheres, has failed the community.

The sustainability of such initiatives will therefore depend very much on how successfully risks associated with these hazards can be managed.
