Land Reform  

Zondi Land Reform Project - URBAN-ECON is currently finalising the planning phases of this 500 beneficiary land redistribution project.

Ennersdale is a new generation supply side land reform project involving the incorporation of two profitable diaries into the Amahlubi community.

Kranskop Camperdown Land Reform Corridor: The land reform issues related to the Kranskop/Camperdown corridor area was investigated by URBAN-ECON on behalf of the Department.

Labuschagneskraal: URBAN-ECON was responsible for assisting this community of 88 households to plan the settlement and farm. Labuschagneskraal is adjacent to Colenso / Nkanyezi, KwaZulu-Natal.

Roosboom (KwaZulu-Natal): URBAN-ECON undertook the planning for this land restitution project near Ladysmith involving more than 500 households. In terms of this project the validity of the claims had to be investigated and related to the historical and current land ownership. The complexity of the land claims and the validation thereof delayed this particular project for over 6 months.
Nhlwana Buthelezi Development Forum (KwaZulu-Natal): URBAN-ECON together with Korsman and Van Wyk formulated the business plans for the Act 126 Land Redistribution Project near Louwsburg.

Othaka Mdlalose Tribal Authority (KwaZulu-Natal): URBAN-ECON together with Korsman and Van Wyk investigated the feasibility of buying the Farm Driekwart for low density residential development in terms of Act 126. The farm is located near Vryheid.
Land Reform Pilot Project: Rust de Winter, Gauteng - URBAN-ECON was one of the core consultants on this important project to determine settlement alternative and propose agricultural projects to serve as economies base.

Southern Cape Land Reform Pilot Programme - URBAN-ECON was one of the core consultants considering the socio-economic aspects and economic base of various settlements to formulate a future settlement strategy.

Marabastad - Kroonstad: URBAN-ECON is the main consultant to undertake the necessary planning and development facilitation for the community as part of a land claims project.

Brakfontein: Brakfontein is an ex-mining village in a rural area, to which the delivery of basic services was discontinued after the mining company had retrenched the workers. The investigation into settlement options for the Brakfontein village was commissioned by both the social responsibility arm of the mine's parent company and the Department of Land Affairs. The former client required an investigation into the viability of the community at the site as compared to other possible locations. The latter required an investigation for the purposes of land redistribution in terms of the Department's land reform policy. The project involved a participatory process involving the community in various options for attaining local self-reliance.
