A Census of Street Vendors in eThekwini Municipality

By , , on September 20, 2007

StreetNet, an international federation that works to promote and protect the rights of street vendors, commissioned Reform Development Consulting to conduct a ‘census and situation analysis of street traders in the eThekwini Municipality’ within KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The need for accurate statistics on the number of street vendors operating within the municipality and the ‘situation’ of these vendors is seen as imperative in order to both inform advocacy efforts and to act as an important first step in the creation of a properly
administered spatial regulation and permit allocation system for all street  vendors within the Municipality.
