General Information The iconic Whale Well in the Iziko South African Museum. 1.1 Submission of the Annual Report to the Executive Authority The Council overcame a number of challenges during its last year in office. The administration and governance of Iziko Museums of Cape Town were further improved, making operations even more efficient, and enabling the museums to reach out to both national and international communities. The preparations for the 2010 FIFA World Cup were part of the citys and province’s planned activities Prof Elias Links in which Iziko participated throughout. Chairperson of Council Realising that this was their last year in office, the Council took steps to ensure a smooth succession to the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) after October 2010. The Council also prepared for a new Executive Team, given that both the Executive Directors were reaching the end of their contracts with Iziko. Iziko’s efficient management and administration will allow the next Council to concentrate increasingly on core functions and the growth of Iziko’s footprint in the broader community of Cape Town and the nation at large. The international footprint has been well established and this was further improved in the course of this Council’s tenure. The Council supported the national Department of Arts and Culture in the interim management of Robben Island Museum during their transformation process. This challenge called for some changes in management of Iziko, and in this regard the Council could count on its executive team led by the CEO and the executive directors to continue with the excellent progress at Iziko while assisting the Department with the many challenges at Robben Island Museum. Iziko’s governance once again proved to be of the best in the heritage sector, thanks to a very fine organisational structure that involves everyone in achieving Iziko’s strategic goals. I would like to thank my colleagues in Council for their diligence in executing their duties and for their support of management. Their commitment and professional expertise have been a source of innovation and professionalism that have helped to achieve the standards we set. Management had many diverse challenges over the last year and their professional approach to addressing these has been a source of strength for the institution. Not only the executives, but the entire staff have enjoyed an unprecedented loyalty to heritage and Iziko Museums in particular. My thanks go to all staff for making my tenure over the past seven years a real pleasure and for their contribution towards a feeling of accomplishment. My best wishes accompany those who retired in the past year, in particular, Dr Patricia Davison who has served Iziko in a very professional and unselfish manner. Ms Veliswa Baduza moved on to serve at executive level in the national Department of Arts and Culture and we wish her well. Professor Bredekamp, who has been the CEO of Iziko during a very challenging period, retires in October 2010. He has put his own particular stamp on the Iziko brand, both nationally and internationally, and on behalf of Council, I would like to express my thanks for his outstanding leadership over the last two terms. My last word of thanks goes to the Ministry and Department of Arts and Culture for their support and understanding, making it possible for the Council and management of Iziko to produce work of the highest professional standing.

  • Transforming Representations of Intangible Heritage at Iziko Museums, SA
    ICME papers 2004 Transforming representations of Intangible Heritage at Iziko Museums, SA By HENRY C JATTI BREDEKAMP Iziko Museums, South Africa http://www.museums.org.za/iziko/izihome.html Paper presented at the Concurrent Session Museums and Living Heritage, organized by ICME, The National Folk Museum of Korea, ICOM Korea and ICTOP. ICOM general conference, Seoul, Korea. October 2-8, 2004 "The Minister stressed that issues related to heritage, culture and identity were 'deeply emotional' – after all these are issues that are at the very core of the transformation agenda in South Africa." (Harriet Deacon et al, 2003: 7) Down south in Africa, transformation in the heritage sector of post-apartheid South Africa is still in its transitional phase. However, over the past decade of democratic government, the heritage fraternity has assisted government to make significant strides in the formulation of policies and in the creation or re-imagining of heritage institutions inherited from earlier eras. Within this context, the paper begins with a brief overview of the creation of post-apartheid national heritage institutions in South Africa and the current status of intangible heritage on the state's transformation agenda after a Decade of Democracy. One of these institutions is the amalgamated Iziko national museums of Cape Town, whose representations of various domains of expressions of intangible heritage from Cape to Cairo and beyond is the focus of the third part of this contribution to this session of ICME at ICOM 2004 here in Seoul. The creation of post-apartheid national heritage institutions in South Africa An outsider's understanding of the South African discourse on transformation in the heritage sector today presupposes some knowledge of basic official policy documents like the White Paper on Arts, Culture and Heritage, which preceded the passing of a series of heritage related Acts of Parliament towards the end of the 1990s.

It is submitted for the PHILOSOPHIAE DOCTOR degree at the Potchefstroom Campus of North-West University. It has not been submitted for any other degree to any other university. ......................................................................................... Takalani Eric Mudzanani i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Inspired by the legacy of my industrious late grandfather, Tshifhe, mufunzi Fhedzisani Mudzanani, I undertook this journey knowing that, with God on my side, nothing is impossible. In honour of my grandfather‟s selfless life, I undertook this journey, not only for my personal gain, but also to inspire young minds back in our remote village, Guyuni in Limpopo Province, to reach for the stars. To these young minds and others in all corners of our beautiful country, I say the sky is the limit. With the indispensable support of my supervisor, Professor Elmarie Slabbert, my dream of making a contribution to the field of tourism marketing has become a reality. She took me by the hand as I traversed through all the stages of my PhD project. My beautiful daughter, Rotondwa, for praying for “daddy to get a PhD in the name of Jesus” My beloved wife, Masakona, for listening to me as I talked hysterically about my studies deep into the night.

So late, in fact, is this edition, that I am ashamed to say the Rand/Dollar exchange rate accurately reported on by Space Cadet Ford has since gone to 14-something.
