    Abstract

    This project investigates how local economic activity in Cape

    Town's informal settlements can grow and expand with an

    emphasis on community-based redevelopment. Through an

    analysis of the current economic conditions of the informal

    settlement Monwabisi Park, the project team proposes a

    comprehensive plan for stimulating job creation and skills

    development through an overall community redevelopment

    effort. The project team explains the logistics of managing the

    redevelopment process within the community and provides a

    strategy for effective financial management.
