Towards a Critical Peri-urban Turn in Climate-related Mobility in Southern Africa
This article offers a theoretical intervention on emerging patterns of climate-related mobility and peri-urban transformation in Southern Africa. While it is not an empirically representative study, the analytical intervention is informed by a sustained field engagement with the dynamics of climate change adaptation in peri-urban settlements in South Africa, as well as recent engagements in Mozambique and Malawi. First, the article argues that cl…
Mapping public art to explore the decolonization and Africanization of space in the inner city of Durban, South Africa
Decolonizing South African urban spaces is crucial, particularly in the context of the post-apartheid reconciliation process, and, given the recent resistance against colonial and apartheid symbols and memorials in many institutions in the country. Public arts, particularly in urban centres previously secluded from Black people, constitute one significant means of a decolonial process. In this paper, we adopted an interdisciplinary Spatial Humani…
African Indigenous Performances, Collective Memory, and Identity in Post-apartheid uMlazi Township, South Africa
What unfolds when performative cultural production becomes both a conduit for collectively remembering the past and a map for (re)-imagining identity and belonging among residents in a fractured and contested space of a post-apartheid South African township? Drawing on ethnographic observation and semi-structured interviews among residents of uMlazi Township, this paper addresses the above question by exploring the role that African intangible cu…
Evaluating the Sustainability of Local Women's Climate Change Adaptation Strategies in Durban, South Africa
This paper employs a feminist political ecology and an intersectionality framework to examine the multiple dimensions of local women's vulnerability and adaptation to climate change impacts in selected locations in Durban, KwaZulu‐Natal Province, South Africa. We focus particularly on assessing the sustainability of the gendered adaptive strategies employed by these women. Utilising a qualitative methodology, the study is based on semi‐structured…
Exploring Black African women's experiences of vulnerability and adaptation to flood impacts in the eThekwini metropolitan municipality, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
This article explores the experiences of local Black African women in adapting to flood impacts within the Durban metropolitan area. The article is premised on the realisation that women and men experience climate change differently, as persisting gendered inequities affect women's adaptive capacity to climate change impacts. The study adopted a qualitative approach to research. Twenty-five local Black African women from four localities in Durban…
Examining the Interplay between Economic Development and Local Women Vulnerability to Flood Impacts in Selected Local Areas in Durban, South Africa
This article probes the rural economic development approach in selected informal settlements in Durban and how such approach affects the vulnerability of local Black women to flood impacts within the areas. Qualitative data for the study were gathered through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with 25 local Black women from Inanda, Ntuzuma, KwaMashu and Umlazi. Five key informants from the eThekwini (Durban) metropolitan munic…
