- A draft Knowledge Management Strategy for the City of Cape Town (PDF, 226kb)
June 2006
Until mid-June 2006, the City did not have a unified strategy to document and capture intellectual and knowledge-based assets that flowed from the activities/ initiatives/projects within the URP. The result was that the City had not been able to derive any learning or value from the URP that would improve its service delivery on similar programmes/ projects in the future.
This project was therefore intended to develop a draft strategy for the adoption of knowledge management practices (or habits) across the URP
- A review of literature emanating from and related to the City of Cape Town’s URP (PDF, 124kb)
June 2006
The purpose of this three-month research project was to create a body of literature for the City of Cape Town’s URP. The catalogue does not claim to be a comprehensive listing of all literature from and related to the URP. Instead, what we hoped to achieve was to create a catalogue of the primary documentation, thereby providing an understanding of the volume and nature of material on the subject area
- Environmental Management Framework (EMF) for Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain (PDF, 1.21Mb)
August 2005
To ensure that environmental, socio-economic and cultural factors were considered when developing the URP projects, the City appointed the Environmental Evaluation Unit of the University of Cape Town to assist in preparing an Environmental Management Framework (EMF) for the Khayelitsha/Mitchells Plain urban renewal programme. The main objectives of the EMF are to:
- identify strategic areas to be protected
- streamline the mandatory environmental impact assessment process to enable development in appropriate areas
- facilitate the integration of sustainability objectives into plans, policies and programmes from the outset
- promote integrated decision making between all government and non-government agencies with responsibilities for land use, environmental and heritage management
- National URP: Implementation framework (PDF, 5.19Mb)
This 64-page PDF document introduces the national URP and discusses the policy and strategic framework, the funding and financial framework, the organisational and institutional framework as well as the management systems and procedures, and the human resources and capacities
- National URP: Lessons learned (PDF, 8.11Mb)
This 92-page PDF document is based on interviews conducted at the following URP projects: Inanda Ntuzuma KwaMashu, Mdantsane, Motherwell, Mitchells Plain/Khayelitsha, Galeshewe and Alexandra
- National URP: Toolkit for programme managers (PDF, 9.17Mb)
This is a 152-page PDF document that focuses on the management systems and practices that will strengthen implementation of the URP at the level of individual nodes. The toolkit is aimed at the management teams deployed at the nodal level to manage and drive the implementation within each node
- Socio-economic survey of URP nodes (Presentation) (PDF, 1.59Mb)
- Spatial development framework for the URP nodes (PDF, 1.9Mb)
Khayelitsha and Mitchells Plain are spatially marginalised. To a significant extent, they are isolated from the rest of the city and from each other due to their distance from opportunities as well as major barriers that surround the areas. Internally they suffer from poor urban qualities, reflected by introverted neighbourhood design and a dominance of mobility oriented route infrastructure. These qualities have lead to poor levels of investment in economic opportunities, poor pre-conditions for local economic activity and have produced a resultant lack in local employment. The new spatial development framework aims to refocus resources in the urban renewal nodes toward spatially targeted, high impact public investment in support of the City’s IDP core strategies and programmes |
