Rural Sustainable Villages Impact Report 2021
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The three main project components of the Rural Sustainable Villages Project are:
Although there is a growing acceptance of a broad array of skills and assets contained in rural communities through-out South Africa, these communities are also faced with a variety of hardships; • access to timeous and contextually appropriate services, • the lack of access to education and training, • low levels of employment, and • access to employment opportunities are amongst these. Sustainable technologies and practices should be seen as part of the solution yet, it has become increasingly evident that the three biggest stumbling blocks to the adoption and implementation of sustainable practices and technologies into the community homesteads is capacity, access and income/affordability. This project aims to address these challenges with the proposed Rural Sustainable Villages Project through three main project components.
Capacity development and training
