Abstract:
Excessive MSW production is a growing management problem for cities in developing countries, such as South Africa. This study addresses these challenges with particular focus on the City of Tshwane. A major problem in Tshwane is that all the MSW generated in the city, including garden waste, is currently being landfilled. A waste stream analysis of Tshwane reveals the largest fraction of MSW is organic and biodegradable, and therefore suitable for compost production. The study proposes that Tshwane will have to address composting the biodegradable fraction of the MSW stream. This study attempts to understand the economics of composting practices in Tshwane, whether composting in Tshwane is financially viable. A comparative study, applying the dome aeration technology on a conventional static windrow, was conducted with the objective of investigating and proposing alternative improved composting technologies for green waste. Although the study focused on Tshwane, it can be argued that the findings could be implemented in any other South African municipality, and even implemented in other emerging countries.

Abstract:
Annual reports issued by the City of Tshwane (2015) for the financial years 2010 to 2014 show that the City of Tshwane has received qualified audit reports from the South African Auditor General (2015). The two key causes of underperformance were lack of adherence to norms and standards that are applicable to municipal service delivery and lack of adherence to the fundamental principles of good corporate governance (King, 2009). A study was conducted in the City of Tshwane, South Africa in order to assess and evaluate the degree of adherence to good corporate governance principles stipulated by Mervin King (King, 2009) in the form of the King III report. Data was collected from a stratified random sample of size 1, 012 residents of the City of Tshwane. Stratification was done by geographical zone. Data was collected from respondents by using a structured, pre-tested and validated questionnaire of study consisting of 22 indicators of service quality. The study found that 84.37% of respondents who took part in the study were satisfied with the overall quality of municipal services that were provided to them by the City of Tshwane. Only 15.63% of respondents were not satisfied with the overall quality of services provided to them. The study showed that most of the respondents had a positive perception on the quality of routine municipal services such as water and lights and waste removal by employees of the City of Tshwane. The study showed that the degree of satisfaction of residents, ratepayers and stakeholders with the quality of municipal services that were provided to them was significantly influenced by the degree of motivation of employees of the City of Tshwane at work, the ability of employees of the City of Tshwane to treat all customers with respect, the ability of employees of the City of Tshwane to provide adequate answers promptly to queries raised by customers, and the degree to which employees of the City of Tshwane were skilled on technical issues, in a decreasing order of strength.

Abstract:
A survey was conducted in local municipalities in the Tshwane region of Gauteng Province in South Africa in order to assess and evaluate the efficiency with which municipal waste is collected, disposed of, processed and recycled by local municipalities in Tshwane based on data gathered from 1,035 businesses. Efficiency in waste management was assessed by using a structural time-based model designed for evaluating efficiency as a function of the length of time required to manage and process municipal waste. Adherence to municipal bylaws and procedures recommended for solid waste management by businesses by the City of Tshwane was graded based on ISO 14000 and ISO 14031 standards and guidelines. The study found that efficiency in waste management was adversely influenced by lack of adherence to municipal bylaws and regulations, wrong perception on the benefits of proper waste management, and failure to provide customers with waste disposal bins, in a decreasing order of importance.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to identify and quantify differential factors that undermine the quality of municipal services that are provided to residents of the City of Tshwane. Data was collected from a stratified random sample of size 1, 012 residents of the City of Tshwane. Stratification was done by geographical zone. Data was collected from respondents by using a structured, pre-tested and validated questionnaire of study consisting of 22 indicators of service quality. The questionnaire of study consisted of 5 dimensions of expectation and perception (reliability, assurance, tangibles, empathy and responsiveness). Each of the 1, 012 respondents in the study had to provide answers to 22 questions related to expectations plus 22 questions related to perceptions. As such, each of the 1, 012 respondents had to provide answers to 44 questions (22 questions on expectation + 22 questions on perception). Measurements of expectations and perceptions were done by using a 5-point ordinal scale. Face validity was used for ensuring validity. The Cronbach Alpha test was used for ensuring reliability and internal consistency. The expected and perceived quality of emergency services provided to the general public by employees of the City of Tshwane was analyzed by using SERVQUAL analysis. This was done by estimating gap scores (the average difference between expected and perceived scores). The study found that 84.37% of respondents who took part in the study were satisfied with the overall quality of municipal services that were provided to them by the City of Tshwane. Only 15.63% of respondents were not satisfied with the overall quality of services provided to them. The study showed that most of the respondents had a positive perception on the quality of routine municipal services such as water and lights and waste removal by employees of the City of Tshwane. The study found that as many as 87.13% of respondents had a positive perception about the degree of commitment shown to them by employees of the City of Tshwane. Based on results obtained from SERVQUAL analysis, 20 of the 22 gap scores were found to be significant at the 5% level of significance. There were only 2 items (out of a total of 22 items) that did not produce significant gap scores. These 2 items were items 2 and 3 of the dimension on responsiveness. Item 2 of the dimension on responsiveness was an assessment on the degree of suitability of the equipment used by municipal employees for carrying out routine services. Item 3 of the dimension on responsiveness was an assessment on the degree of physical fitness of employees of the City of Tshwane for carrying out routine municipal services effectively. With the expectation of the 2 gap scores corresponding to these 2 items, all other gap scores (20 out of 22) were statistically significant at the 5% level of significance. Based on results obtained from factor analysis, the perception and expectation of respondents on the quality of municipal services that were provided to them were significantly influenced by 4 key predictors of perception. These 4 predictor variables were the degree of motivation of employees of the City of Tshwane at work, the ability of employees of the City of Tshwane to treat all customers with respect, the ability of employees of the City of Tshwane to provide adequate answers promptly to queries raised by customers, and the degree to which employees of the City of Tshwane were skilled on technical issues, in a decreasing order of strength. Similar results were obtained from logit analysis. The results showed that the perception and expectation of respondents were influenced by similar variables of study.

Abstract:
The textile industry of the City of Tshwane has been overwhelmed by cheap imports from countries such as China, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Malaysia, South Korea and Vietnam. Although support is provided to black entrepreneurs in the textile industry of Tshwane by institutions such as the South African National Department of Trade and Industry and the South African Small Enterprise Development Agency, local textile businesses are unable to compete favourably with foreign manufacturers, importers and distributors. The textile industry is a key contributor to the South African GDP and employs about 5% of the South African workforce. One of the key priorities of the City of Tshwane is to transform the textile industry of Tshwane so that it provides sustainable livelihood and career opportunities to black indigenous South Africans. A descriptive, cross-sectional study design was used for collecting data from a stratified random sample of size 250 textile businesses operating in the five geographical zones of Tshwane. One of the aims of the study was to assess the veracity of the theory proposed by Bansal and DesJardine (2014) in which the authors have argued that changing global circumstances would compel local industries to adapt to global changes at local level as a means of sustained survival. Data analysis was performed by using Structural Equations Modelling (SEM). The results showed that sustained viability in textile businesses was significantly influenced by the degree of entrepreneurial skills, the ability to secure loan needed for operation, and the ability to order merchandise in bulk on credit from suppliers, in a decreasing order of strength. About 32% of business operators had adequate entrepreneurial skills based on the composite index developed by Ács, Szerb and Autio (2011). A repeat of the same study as a 5-yearlong study is recommended in order to estimate theoretically reliable predictors such as hazard ratios for factors that are known to affect viability in the local textile industry.

Abstract:
The South African women emancipation policy statement and gender equality are critical tools established by government to eradicate poverty among entrepreneurs operating in small business. Khula was established to act as a financial wholesaler to emerging entrepreneurs who needed finance to start and grow businesses. The Small Enterprise Development Agency was established to provide training needs to small business operators. Lack of finance is a major stumbling block to women entrepreneurs reaching their full economic potential in South Africa. Financial collaterals are barriers for women operating in SMMEs in Tshwane. The objective of the study was to investigate the financial barriers facing women entrepreneurs in Tshwane when starting or growing businesses. In order to achieve the results a structured questionnaire and interviews were used as method of collecting data. A sample of 300 women operating SMMEs in six townships of the Tshwane metropolitan area was analysed per a quota of 50 businesses per township. The results indicate that women entrepreneurs lack the financial collateral that is demanded by financial institutions when applying for finance to start or grow their business.

Abstract:
A 3-year long survey was conducted in the Tshwane geographical region of Gauteng Province in South Africa in order to identify and quantify key predictors of adequate municipal services that are routinely provided to customers who operate newly established small businesses in the City of Tshwane, Pretoria, South Africa. Data was collected by using a structured, pre-tested and validated questionnaire of study from a stratified random sample of size 1, 058 small businesses. The key objective of study was to assess the relationship between viability in small businesses and the provision of quality municipal services by the City of Tshwane. The study was conducted against the background of a high failure rate among newly established small businesses in the City of Tshwane. The study was conducted over a 3-year period (2012 to 2014). Data was collected monthly during the three-year period of study on socioeconomic variables that are known to affect the perception of business operators on the quality of municipal services to business operators and the general public. Statistical procedures such as cross-tab analyses, panel data analysis, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms and Bayesian methods were used for estimating parameters. The study showed that there was a significant association between positive perception of business operators on the quality of municipal services provided to them and viability of businesses. The results showed that 87% of viable businesses were satisfied with the quality of routine municipal services that were provided to them by the City of Tshwane. The corresponding figure for non-viable businesses was only 14%. The viability of businesses was significantly influenced by 3 predictor variables. These predictor variables were: lack of capacity for fulfilling the business and entrepreneurial needs of newly established businesses [Hazard Ratio = 3.58; P=0.000; 95% C. I. = (1.45, 5.46)], inappropriate policy [Hazard Ratio = 3.19; P=0.000; 95% C. I. = (1.39, 5.28)], and lack of tailor made training programmes directed at newly established small businesses [Hazard Ratio = 2.89; P=0.000; 95% C. I. = (1.24, 4.77)], in a decreasing order of strength. Similar findings were obtained from the analyses of in-depth interviews.

Abstract:
It seems that most small farmers focus on technical skills rather than on conceptual skills, as technical skills are seen to contribute most to the performance of the small farm. The need for this research came from this perception and, therefore, the aim of this article is to determine the small farmers’ managerial skills level in the Tshwane area of Gauteng. A quantitative survey was conducted amongst 50 small farmers in the Tshwane area of Gauteng. The conducted research established that most small farmers focus on technical skills rather than on conceptual skills. Small farmers also indicated that they need training in marketing and financial management which are conceptual skills

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: South Africa boasts significant cumulative public-private partnership experience when compared to other African countries. However, little has been done to investigate the success and failure of implemented projects versus those registered on the National Treasury database. There is a limited amount of documented progress of public-private partnerships in South Africa, these being successes and failures in project implementation as well as the contributing factors for such outcomes, and these would serve as critical lessons for future partnerships. The main objective of this study is to investigate the challenges faced in the implementation of municipal public-private partnerships, especially concerning the City of Tshwane’s accommodation public-private partnership. A case study approach was adopted, reviewing the City of Tshwane’s public-private partnership initiative by looking at some of the reported challenges faced as well as the process followed during the implementation of the project. The results of this research assignment indicate that major strides have been made in acquiring sufficient experience and knowledge relating to public-private partnerships as they relate to the South African environment, and the main project team members, who have been involved long enough to understand the objectives of the project. However, of concern is the constant change of project team members taking into account that for each project phase a new team is established. The implication of this is that project knowledge may be lost due to changes in the structure of the project team. It should be noted that at the submission of this assignment the City of Tshwane accommodation public-private partnership was still in progress and in the initial stages of physical construction.

Abstract:
This project focuses on the relationship between law and space. In the South African context, apartheid can be understood as a legal system that regulated material space. This system produced social relations and conditions that remain, despite the abolition of the apartheid legal system. Spatial justice captures the relationship between law and space. Looking at law from the perspective of spatial justice provides a vocabulary for explaining how spaces (as social relations) remain after laws have gone. Following feminist geographer Doreen Massey, I call for law to recognise relational space. The city of Tshwane's lawscape provides me with three instantiations through which to investigate the spatial justice discourse. The first chapter considers the case of Schubart Park, a high-rise complex in the inner city of Tshwane. An estimated 700 families were evicted from the building complex in 2011. The constitutional court, one year later, ordered the re-instatement of the inhabitants, but the buildings still stand empty. The second chapter focuses on the city of Tshwane street names case. During 2012, a number of street names across the city were changed. The constitutional court, in 2016, handed down a judgment that brings to the surface the notions of belonging in the city. The third chapter traces the grand narrative of the municipality by analysing the mayoral speeches of the past five years and the Tshwane 2055 plan. This project hopes to contribute to the vocabulary of spatiality and spatial justice from a post-apartheid South African perspective and in particular from the vantage point of the administrative capital.

Abstract:
Thesis (MComm (Logistics))--Stellenbosch University, 2008.
One of the results of globalisation is that supply chains are getting longer, in both time and distance. For example, the local bookstore around the corner now competes with the bookstore in the USA. Logistics ties together geographically distant sources and markets. The implications of this are that there is a greater need for efficiency in specifically transportation and distribution networks. The integration of transport infrastructure into a logistics hub is seen as an enabler of distribution on a global basis. A solution to overcome the above complications is the development of logistics hubs as a means to simplify supply chain processes. Logistics hubs are generally defined as integrated centres for transhipment, storage, collection and distribution of goods (Jorgenson, 2007). Universally logistics hubs have intermodal or multi-modal solutions to abridge transportation difficulties and creating seamless movement of goods and in doing so optimising general operations. Freight shipments now have the ability to be consolidated at a central point and distributed from that point to its final destination. This creates added value for freight products. Customers now receive products at the right time, at the right place and in the right quantity, but with the benefit of paying less as a result of economies of scale created by the value added at the logistics hub. Logistics hubs are very well established internationally and many examples exist where these have been successfully built and implemented. This does not suggest that there is one specific recipe to success. Each region has its own demands which need to be satisfied. There are however numerous common characteristics which were identified during the course of the study. It is important for South Africa to integrate existing transport infrastructure to optimise logistics in the country and in doing so, ascertaining itself as a regional logistics hub.

Abstract:
This dissertation seeks to explore the legacy of coloniality inherent in the built environment of South African cities today, especially the City of Tshwane (Pretoria), and propose strategies to rewrite a more inclusive and transformative architectural legacy. As the historical (and current) seat of the South African government, Pretoria has seen much of the making of South Africa’s colonial (as well as pre and post-colonial) history. The remains of the architectural heritage speak of European classical ideals, battles for imperial power and colonial ways of life, and many of these heritage buildings could be seen to be struggling to represent a diverse and transformed nation. As the call has gone out to question the future of statues and monuments of problematic past leaders, it brings to light the question of our built history, heritage and the legacy it leaves. Colonial architecture heritage faces different avenues of conservation, such as forms of reuse or adaptive reuse; however, many are facing abandonment due to its inability to transform or adapt to the changing needs of society. Such is Berea Park Sports Club's case, abandoned and then vandalised, its ruins speaking of possibly becoming forgotten altogether. By investigating the reuse of the building and sports grounds through the themes of urban land reform, architectural hybridity and relevant heritage approaches, this project seeks to reimagine the legacy of the site and address spatial and social justice concerns left in the wake of the colonial city.

Abstract:
This study explored caregivers' views on play and play areas in Salvokop, Tshwane. Specific focus was placed on children's play, play between caregiver and child, and the importance of play spaces. Five relevant categories were identified for investigation including biographical details, the child in early childhood, caregivers' opinions on play, play between caregiver and child, and public play areas. The research methodology for this study was clearly defined and outlined where a qualitative research approach was utilised with a semi-structured interview schedule as data-collection method. The literature chapter focused on early childhood, theoretical perspectives on play, defining play, the advantages of play, as well as play between parents and child and the importance of public play areas. Research findings for this qualitative study were presented using tables which were fully discussed in the study in order to describe caregivers' views on play, play between caregiver and child, and play areas. Research findings showed that not all caregivers are aware of the importance of play for child development and do not consider play on its own as the most important activity during early childhood, yet caregivers indicate that their children spend most of their time playing. The types of play that children engage in have numerous advantages and are more varied than what caregivers deem important. Caregivers believe that children need long periods of play on a daily basis and most children do actually play for long periods every day. Children in this study also participate in more physical activity than children in some developed countries. Children have uninterrupted time to play where they are not hurried or directed by anyone. Caregivers play with their children and enjoy different types of play with their children. However, there is a lack of physical play between caregivers and children. There is no public play area in Salvokop but caregivers would like to have a public play area and indicate that their children will make use of a public play area extensively. Finally, conclusions and recommendations were made following the key findings for this study. The research question for this study was fully answered in that the empirical investigation provided a comprehensive reflection of caregiver's views on play and play areas.

Abstract:
In order to determine what mental health problems South African children living with HIV experience, interviews were conducted with HIV-positive children and their caregivers at a paediatric HIV clinic in Tshwane. The interviews with the children included assessments that focused on the children's self-esteem (Self-Description Questionnaire), experiences of anxiety (RCMAS), and the coping strategies that they employed in daily living (Kidcope). The interviews with caregivers included a questionnaire about demographic details, the Parental Stress Index (PSI), and the Coping with Children's Negative Emotions Scale (CCNES). Caregivers also completed the Child Behaviour Checklist (CBCL), which assesses a range of psychological problems in children. These results were compared to a sample of HIV-negative children and their caregivers from the same community. Although many children living with HIV-infection displayed clinical levels of somatic and depressive symptoms, these did not differ at statistically significant rates from the HIVnegative comparison group. Furthermore, children living with HIV were not found to experience clinically significant levels of anxiety as assessed by the RCMAS. Children living with HIV were found to employ more adaptive coping strategies than maladaptive coping strategies and significantly fewer maladaptive coping strategies than HIV-uninfected children use. Children living with HIV were also found to have significantly higher positive self-evaluations than HIVuninfected children. The results of the caregiver assessments indicated that caregivers of children living with HIV experience more distress in their relationship with their child and tend to engage less with negative emotional displays of their children than do caregivers of HIV-uninfected children.

Abstract:
Social entrepreneurship is a fairly new subject to most academics. Extensive research and analysis is currently underway to understand this subject better. By definition, it still lends itself to the general known description of commercial entrepreneurship. What makes it distinctive is its virtuousness of the mission to create better social value than commercial profit. For social entrepreneurs, the social mission is explicit and central. This obviously affects how social entrepreneurs perceive and assess opportunities. Mission-related impact becomes the central criterion, not wealth creation. Wealth is just a means to an end for social entrepreneurs. This study investigates the overall view of social entrepreneurship and puts together a working definition of social entrepreneurship in the Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. This study's primary objective focuses on determining the sustainability of social entrepreneurship and its potential to contribute meaningfully to the overall economy. The secondary objective of the study is to find a working definition of social entrepreneurship as proposed by other researchers throughout the world and assess some of the work done around the subject. The research methodology consists of literature study and empirical research that in turn encompass administering a survey questionnaire to various social entrepreneurs in the Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. The literature study focuses on worldwide definitions, approaches, activities, funding mechanisms, skill requirements and challenges around the subject of social entrepreneurship. The literature study also finds a detailed study of Ashoka, one of the most successful social entrepreneurship initiatives from the United Kingdom, which is perceived as one of the most successful projects on this subject. The empirical research cover the construction of a survey questionnaire aimed at understanding five key areas around social entrepreneurship in Tshwane. These areas covers sets of questions to gather a better understanding of the demographic profile of a social entrepreneur, the demographic profile of their organisations (specifically non-profit organisations), how they generate their income, raise funds and the source of this funding, challenges they face in the city and last but not least, gather the thoughts of these entrepreneurs in terms of what can be done to make it successful. The questionnaire comprises of both open-closed ended questions. The results of the findings, which include an overall demographic profile of the social entrepreneur, showed a significant potential for social entrepreneurship to prosper in the Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality and the need for further research and investigation on this subject. The results also show the need for higher level of skills and qualifications for social entrepreneurs to grow beyond the initial incubation stage in their organisations. Other findings from the results include relevance of location for social entrepreneurship to prosper. The finding also revealed the need for increased access to funding and better policy framework to help entrepreneurs to operate harmoniously. Crime and inadequate regulatory framework poses some of the biggest threats to social entrepreneurship. A number of practical recommendations have been listed in the study for authorities to consider, in an attempt to make this subject a meaningful solution to solve some of the socio-economic problems in Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. It is the author's belief that the objectives of the study have been met, despite the bias of the geographic location and possibly a smaller sample size than expected nevertheless provide a sound base for continuity on the subject.

Abstract:
This investigation aimed to explore the mode of curriculum delivery in Primary School in Tshwane South District during the Covid-19 pandemic because there is insufficient research on this subject. A case study of a Primary School was used to obtain in-depth information about the mode of curriculum delivery during the Covid-19 pandemic. Using a case study was also practical because the pandemic's restrictions posed a challenge to research many schools. Data was gathered through document analysis. A qualitative approach was employed to analyze and identify categories and emerging themes from the data. An interpretive paradigm was used while connectivism theory was employed as a lens. The findings revealed that schools used face-to-face mode of curriculum delivery during the lockdown and after schools re-opened during Covid-19, resulting in a challenge with content coverage that led to revising the annual teaching plans and trimming the curriculum.

Abstract:
This chapter presents the influence of households’ demographics on food waste generation. A mixed method research approach consisting of meta-analysis, survey (structured interviews), and experimental were used to collect opinions and weigh the amount of waste generated in each household. Although not all demographic variables were investigated, the influence of: (1) family size, (2) household monthly income, (3) employment status, (4) educational level, and (5) age of respondents on food waste generation were analyzed. The results of the study confirmed that age and family size are positive factors that influence the amount of food waste generated in households of the City of Tshwane, as opposed to the level of education, employment status, and monthly income levels. It should be noted, however, that this study does not conclusively exclude the other factors as not having an influence in food waste generations. However, their influence in the current food waste generation quantities was not conclusive. Further studies with larger sample size are thus recommended.

Abstract:
To extend the life expectancy of all South Africans to at least 70 years by 2030, hypertension follow-up care needs to be strengthened so that patients do not develop complications while in care. The aim of this study was to evaluate the follow-up care received by patients with hypertension at primary health care (PHC) facilities in Tshwane district. The study setting was ten PHC facilities in the aforesaid district. Quantitative, descriptive and retrospective methods were adopted, and simple random sampling was used to select ten PHC facilities from which ten files were conveniently sampled. Data were captured in Microsoft Excel 2010 and exported to IBM Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software version 21 in which data coding, outlier detection, missing value analysis and statistical data analysis were performed. In line with the study aim, frequency tables in SPSS were used to produce frequency statistics, and the chi-square test was used to test for the presence of association between compliance by nurses to clinical guidelines and categories of attributes, and further determine if there was a significant difference between adherence and non-adherence. The study found a significant proportion (93.4%) of non-adherence to hypertension guidelines among consulting nurses at selected PHC facilities.

Abstract:
Quantitative measures show that the higher education system in South Africa remains inefficient and this reality poses significant challenges to all universities. The Faculty of Humanities at the Tshwane University of Technology has added a Student Support Programme to the existing institutional student support structures. In this article, the author reflects on the experiences of student supporters who were appointe in 2014 and 2015 for the enhancement of students' living and learnining to improve success in the Faculty of Huanities. The findings indicated that this programme has indeed improved the academic performance and personal circumstances of hundreds of students. The under-preparedness of students entering South African higher education institutions was highlighted as a major obstacle in academic performances. The majority of students who are supported by this programme experience intense personal and social challenges that are by and large brought about by and as the result of severe financial needs. The student supprters were adamant in their departing statement that much more had to be done over and beyond the general and existing approach and support structures at the Tshwane University of Technology to support these students.Keywords: Student support; Student living; Student learning; Social challenges

Abstract:
An in-depth study of the business-IT interface produced numerous reasons why Information Technology (IT) solutions often do not meet the expectations of the business client. Major contributors towards the expectation gap are: Insufficient analysis of the business problem, bad user requirement specifications and documentation, ineffective communication and interpersonal relationship problems. All of these are the responsibility of the business- and/or systems analyst, who acts as a bridge between the IT function and the rest of the business. There is confusion about the title, role and required knowledge and skills of analysts. A formal ‘Body of Knowledge’ (BOK) can address the confusion in the ICT industry and guide higher education institutions to effectively prepare such employees for the industry. This article discusses the results of the initial phase of a joint research project by the Tshwane University of Technology and the Special Interest Group for Analysis in South Africa towards creating such an Analysis Body of Knowledge (ABOK). In this phase the need for a BOK was determined and the world of analysis in South Africa investigated to draw up a preliminary analysis profile. The plans for follow-up research to develop a comprehensive ABOK are also discussed.
