All these values are espoused by the Women’s Humanity Arts Festival whose organisers believe in equality and that the world belongs to all those who live in it. The City of Cape Town is proud to be associated with an event which seeks to promote inclusion and educate the public on the importance of telling the stories of marginalised groups in South Africa. We are indeed proud that Cape Town’s hub of arts and culture, the Artscape will again host the Women’s Humanity Arts Festival where audiences will not only be entertained with the fine arts, but also engage in thought-provoking commentary on human rights issues. -

The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage. -

Yesterday • Today • Tomorrow
YESTERDAY • TODAY • TOMORROW ARTSCAPE THEATRE CENTRE | 1 OUR THEME: YESTERDAY, TODAY & TOMORROW “… in order to celebrate the achievements over the past 50 years, we need to be mindful of how it came about, build on the work of those that came before us, and lead the way to a future that is even more inclusive, more equitable and more just – a constant strife.” – Marlene le Roux Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow Rajesh Jock CHAIRPERSON Artscape Theatre Centre Artscape Theatre Centre (formally the Nico Malan Theatre) has made major advances since its inception in 1971. Relying on a strong commitment from the National Department of Sport, Arts and Culture, the theatre now celebrates its Golden Anniversary! Entertainment, arts and culture contributes to the vibrancy, heritage and activation of the Cape Town Metropolitan City as well as the Western Cape Province, and plays an important role in tourism and economic growth. Since being renamed circa 1999, Artscape has provided a modern, contemporary and world-class regional venue supporting arts and culture, and especially local talent. Artscape represents a very special organisation, comprising committed professionals, who are dedicated to the advancement of many different local and international productions in the City of Cape Town and many other parts of the Western Cape Province. Combined with the passion and commitment of major stakeholders both nationally and provincially, Artscape has become a home for all in the arts and will continue to embrace the diverse communities of the Western Cape through performers and patrons. I thank and congratulate everyone who has, over many years, dedicated their expertise, time, effort and passion to continually building this wonderful organisation and making it what it is today. -
Archaeological Impact Assessment of the Proposed Extension of a Borrow Pit on Soetmelksvlei 150, Greyton Area, Overberg District Municipality, Western Cape
ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPOSED EXTENSION OF A BORROW PIT ON SOETMELKSVLEI 150, GREYTON AREA, OVERBERG DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, WESTERN CAPE (Assessment conducted under Section 38 (8) of the National Heritage Resources Act as part of a Heritage Impact Assessment) Prepared for: Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants Att: Ms Quahnita Samie E-mail: [email protected] On behalf of: Nadeson Consulting Services Prepared by: Madelon Tusenius Natura Viva cc PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010 Phone: (021) 462 3622 E-mail: [email protected] OCTOBER 2012 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Natura Viva cc was appointed by Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants on behalf of Nadeson Consulting Services to undertake an Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA) for the proposed extension of an existing borrow pit DR1303/16.50/R/1250 (Vidamemoria pit no. 179) between Greyton and Riviersonderend in the Overberg District Municipality. Material excavated from the proposed pit extension will be used for the maintenance of the DR1303. No new roads will have to be constructed as access to the quarry site will be via existing roads and tracks. Special erosion measures will have to be implemented during rehabilitation of the site after quarrying activities have ceased. This study forms part of the Heritage Impact Assessment triggered by the development. The brief for the study was a field visit and short report identifying and assessing archaeological resources and any impact on them, an assessment of significance and recommendations regarding any mitigation required. The field assessment was conducted on foot on 17 September 2012. Archaeological visibility was good on the sparsely-vegetated steep slopes of the hill which forms the major part of the proposed extension. -
