I have a BA Honours Development Studies — (UNISA 2017) Currently a master’s candidate in Environmental Humanities South Centre at the University of Cape Town. My master’s thesis forms part of a transdisciplinary research project Liveable Neighbourhood which seeks to redesign the Hangberg neighbourhood of Hout Bay suburb using a Water Sensitive Design, funded by the Water Research Commission. My research interests include exploring alternative ways that may improve water governance, water management and policy formulation through inclusive and democratic engagements with citizens, municipalities and relevant stakeholders for better service delivery and the wellbeing of water bodies in South African urban areas.
