Abstract

The notion of malnutrition remains the world’s most serious health problem and the single biggest contributor to child mortality. Although food gardens are not specifically mentioned, they have the potential to provide support for malnourished and sick people including children and adults and potentially provide nutritional diversity to support complementary feeding. This study aims to examine the role of the school gardening Programme and its impact on malnutrition in South African rural communities. Data reveals that many children in the rural communities of South Africa suffer from malnutrition and they are experiencing several health consequences. Moreover, this is common among the children at most primary and secondary schools. Therefore, the lack of economic resources, and absence of information regarding nutrition, and inadequate breastfeeding increase the chances and number of malnourished children in rural communities. This is a conceptual or abstract paper whereby the authors relied merely on secondary data and government documents in writing and achieving the set goals and objectives. The study concludes that school gardening programs have the potential to play a fundamental role in addressing malnutrition in South African rural communities. By providing learners with access to fresh produce, nutrition education, and promoting environmental sustainability, these programs can have a positive impact on the health and well-being of students and their communities.

Abstract

In the last decade, South Africa has experienced an influx of undocumented immigrants. This causes strain on government departments in dealing with the number of people entering the country illegally. It further creates a problem within the legal policy frameworks on managing immigration. Ongoing deliberations regarding undocumented immigrants have continued to spread across the country, which raises a more complex phenomenon of causing panic among the public and political officials and needing thorough attention from policymakers. This study aimed to investigate the challenges faced by South African law enforcement agencies in dealing with the illicit population. Although policing of illegal immigrants has developed in a vacuum, there is a need for a more sensitive approach to the attributes that lead to the escalation of illicit immigrants. The findings reveal that the management of illegal immigrants has become a problem for which departments show little care or concern due to a lack of collaborative efforts and policy implementation. There is also a lack of cooperation, crime is rising, cities and communities are overcrowded, and the public has turned to their methods of resolving the problem. The methodology adopted in this study was qualitative, and data were collected using secondary sources and materials. This paper aimed to assess the role of law enforcement agencies in dealing with the illicit population.

Abstract

Migration is an important phenomenon primarily driven by powerful economies and labor market forces. The movement of people across country borders, especially from less developed to more prosperous countries, has a substantial impact in several dimensions. People worldwide have been migrating across continents for food, shelter, safety, and jobs. Today, people are still on the move for the same reasons, and new reasons are arising: they want to be in countries with economic growth and democracy. Moreover, the most important reason for migration is to make money and send remittances to their home countries. The study seeks to assess the effect of immigrants on local economic growth in South Africa. This qualitative study relied much on online secondary data from different search engines. More money is going out of the country than the money coming into the country. The article intends to contribute to the existing body of knowledge and inform local government so that the businesses owned by immigrants can contribute to regional economic growth. Findings from this study revealed that most self-employed immigrants are not banking their money; they send money home to their own countries, hurting South Africa's economy.

Abstract

This empirical paper aims to address the impact of electronically rendering services during the pandemic in the South African local government. It is quite evident that the new world of technology usage is amidst us, therefore, calls for an adaptation in customer service and care. It is within the interest of the study that the challenges of e-services are addressed adequately and the setback with e-services is highlighted, which reveals existing institutional capacity prior to the pandemic. The research method that was used in this study is the qualitative method because it uses structured interviews where one provides the explanation physically to the respondent, an explanation that would give a broader understanding of the study. E-services as customer care resources is the use of information technology for delivering government services, this is a way through which services are made available online. Digital transformation of public administration is a way to promote ethical practices and reduce the risks of corruption in local government. E-services as customer care promote efficiency and increase accessibility. In this way, service delivery transforms from traditional administration to electronic communication between the government and citizens. The findings of the study show that the pandemic affected many groups in the community, which required an immediate response from the municipality, as well as a plan to eliminate half of the difficulties encountered during the pandemic. The city has to take a more polished and planned approach. It is suggested that the municipality invest in their employees. Personnel investment is critical to ensure that during a pandemic, no duties overlap or go unfinished due to a lack of workers.
