The comparative cross-continental exchange is between S cotland and South Africa.\n\nThe hope is that this process will develop re lationships\, which will strength amongst key stakeholders over the next t hree years.\n\nWith all active stakeholders the context and process of “ Revolution Room” is shared as way of reflection.  Revolution Room is a Public participatory art project that explores new ways in which artist le ad projects and organisations can mediate and reflect on their processes i n the public realm. In each context we engage in an active exchange with t he organisation and the residents in the selected areas that have particip ated in the process. This reflexive process is ultimately used to reframe and rethink the role of community lead public art projects in a South Afri can context.\n\nIn this seminar I will be sharing some initial findings of this exchange\, as well as examining a specific emergent issue\, namely t he homogeneity of social and economic landscape in Scotland and how that i mpacts public participation compared to similar processes in South Africa\ , where social and economic systems are grossly heterogeneous.\n\nAbout th e Presenter\n\nVaughn Sadie is a conceptual artist and educator\, living and working in Johannesburg. He completed his MFA in 2009 and is currently registered in the PhD Programme at the Urban Futures Centre at the Durb an University of Technology. Since 2010\, Vaughn has become increasingly i nterested in the role that artificial light has on our perception and cons truction of the spaces we occupy. In response he has worked collaborativel y with Sello Pesa\, Jay Pather and Neil Coppen on various projects\, through site-specific work and participatory practice\, to develop altern ative way of perceiving and engaging with a city.\n\nThis project has been supported by the SA-UK Seasons 2014 &\; 2015\, a partnership\nbetween the Department of Arts and Culture\, South Africa and the British Council. \n\nKindly RSVP to confirm your attendance to ufcadmin@dut.ac.za CATEGORIES:General LOCATION:Steve Biko Campus\, ESBE Boardroom\, L3\, S4\, S block\, Durban\, South Africa GEO:-29.85868039999999;31.021840399999974 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=ESBE Boardroom\, L3\, S4\, S block\, Durban\, South Africa;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Steve Biko Camp us:geo:-29.85868039999999,31.021840399999974 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:31@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20150721 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20150723 DTSTAMP:20150309T110601Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/cqpa-review-fashion/ SUMMARY:CQPA Review: Fashion DESCRIPTION:Draft Schedule of review:\n\nArts &\; Design : Fashion\n\nDa te: 21-22 July 2015\n\nFor General Queries\, please contact Mrs Reshma Sin gh on ext 6803 or email singhr@dut.ac.za\n\n \; CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:91@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150724T120000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150724T140000 DTSTAMP:20150720T075224Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/seminar-reflecting-on-developments-in-the -broadcasting-industry-over-the-last-twenty-years/ SUMMARY:Seminar: Reflecting on Developments in the Broadcasting Industry Ov er the Last Twenty Years...

The definition of DH is contested\, as is the issu e of whether it constitutes a newly emerging field or rather a transformat ion of all fields within the humanities\, but the presentation attempts to non-emphatically elaborate the kinds of activities which would be conside red part of its current expression. The presentation also highlights the p rospects that DH has for offering enhanced points of connection between pe dagogy and research in humanities-related faculties and departments.

My discussion attempts to read the social contours of urban communi ty politics as reflective of\, and preconditioned by\, the broader socio-s patial contradictions and fragments characterising the South African polit y and society — the embedded societal fractures of ethnicity\, racism an d classism\, amongst others. I demonstrate that the history of apartheid d ispossession and a context of migrancy\, racism\, and classism have a tend ency to be incarnated and re-performed in spaces of community politics. Th e Bourdieusian concept of field is deployed to engage a relational analysi s of actors' logics and motives within in the arena of community politics. \nCommunity politics in this case is understood as encompassing community organising\, local political action\, community governance and community l eadership\, all happening at the very local or neighbourhood level\, mostl y informally\, but sometimes formally. An examination of the anatomy of co mmunity politics in a context where community participation is prominent i n development thought and practice is therefore essential (see McEwan 2003 \; Netswera 2008\; Piper &\; Deacon 2008).\n\nAbout the Presenter\nDr. Obvious Katsaura teaches in the Department of Sociology at Wits University and is a research associate of Society\, Work\, and Development Institute (SWOP) at Wits. His research interests are in urban and regional sociolog y\, with a focus on urban politics and governance\, urban ethnopolitics\, urban violence\, religious urbanisms.\nHe is currently a fellow of the Vol kswagen Foundation's Postdoctoral Programme in the Humanities in Africa\, where he holds a grant for a project titled “Violence and Enchanted Urba nisms”. Through this project\, Obvious uses the case study of Johannesbu rg to explore the mediatory role of religion and ritual in mediating peopl e's experiences and imaginations of unpredictable and violent urban enviro nments.\n\nKindly RSVP to confirm your attendance to UFCadmin@dut.ac.za CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:120@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150910T120000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150910T120000 DTSTAMP:20150907T134415Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/writing-centre-competition-awards-ceremon y/ SUMMARY:Writing Centre Competition - Awards Ceremony DESCRIPTION:Date: Thursday\, 10 September 2015\n\nTime: 12pm\n\nVenue: Rits on Hotel School Restaurant - Ritson Campus\n\nRSVP: Shahieda Kraft\n\n0313 736735\n\nshahiedak@dut.ac.za ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/09 /Writing-compeition.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:117@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150914T060000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150914T060000 DTSTAMP:20150907T132121Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/public-lecture-series/ SUMMARY:Public Lecture Series DESCRIPTION:Scientific Temper in Indian Identity\n\nDate : 14 September 201 5\nTime : 18:00\nVenue : Conference Room 1 and 2\, Hotel School\, Ritson C ampus\, Durban University of Technology (enter via Winterton Walk and Sast ri College)\n\nRSVP : PrashnaH@dut.ac.za or enquiries on 031 373 2464 CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:121@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150914T180000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150914T180000 DTSTAMP:20150907T143238Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/public-lecture-gauhar-raza/ SUMMARY:Public Lecture : Gauhar Raza DESCRIPTION:Date: Monday\, 14 September 2015\n\nTime: 18:00\n\nVenue: Confe rence 1 &\; 2 Hotel School Ritson Campus\n\nRSVP: PrashnaH@dut.ac.za\,\ n\nTelephone : 0313732464 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/09 /raza.png CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:123@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150916T000000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20151002T000000 DTSTAMP:20150908T132906Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/dirty-linen-exhibition-dirty-linen-and-ot her-durban-the-kitchen-suit/ SUMMARY:Dirty Linen Exhibition Dirty Linen and other' Durban & the 'Kitche n suit' DESCRIPTION:Date: 16th September to 02 October 20 I 5\n\nVenue: Kwa Muhle Museum\n\nOPENING NIGHT: 16 September - 6:30pm for 7pm\n\nInvitation attac hed for more information.\n\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/09 /Dirty-Linen-Invite.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:125@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150916T120000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20150916T140000 DTSTAMP:20150914T074906Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/artists-united-against-corruption/ SUMMARY:Artists United Against Corruption DESCRIPTION:Artists United Against Corruption\nReflecting on the role of th e artist in South African society...\n\nKZN launch event - Unite Against C orruption: The campaign to ‘Unite Against Corruption’ has united the o therwise fragmented arts and culture sector across traditional divides of discipline\, race\, gender\, sexual orientation and political belief.

Communities have been fragmented and yearn for a sense of belonging\, and an end to the isolation and self- interest that has been so pervasive and so destructive\nWhen we think of c ommunity\, especially poor and marginalised ones we think of them as a pro blem to be fixed rather than as having any social capital to create a futu re distinct from the past.

These studies are located within particular regimes of knowledge\, which underpin how s tate\, donors\, and other modern institutions order and make sense of the city. ‘Getting the city right’ requires the getting the urban institut ional frameworks\, relationships and processes right. While reading the ci ty in this way is essential\, it is largely silent about how urban dweller s order and make sense of the city. It is not that urban residents are ign ored in these discourses. Indeed discussions around drawing urban dwellers into decision-making frameworks have become de rigeur in urban institutio nal and policy parlance. But these processes are framed within the terms a nd logics defined by the structures and processes set by urban planners an d policy makers. As such\, while we have a rich understanding of African c ities through urban formal institutions and the logic government\, we lack in-depth knowledge on urban dwellers’ subjectivities: their ways of kno wing and organising the city\; and the ways in which their interactions wi th structural frameworks produce new urban spaces. Drawing on ethnographic data\, this article explores migrant women’s relationships and encounte rs with the state in South Africa’s largest city\, Johannesburg. It argu es that the everyday lives of migrant women allows us to see that local ur ban practices are not simply shaped by the formalism of state rules and re gulations\, or their informal illegal counterparts. Rather\, the way migra nt women navigate the city\, trade on the streets\, and interact with the state and other urban actors illustrates that governance is co-constructed by a multitude of regimes\, legal and illegal\, visible and invisible. Mi grant women’s lives collapse the dichotomy of the official and unofficia l\, governed and ungoverned city in ways that allow us to rethink how we c onceptualise Africa’s urban spaces.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nDr. Caroline Wanjiku Kihato is a Visiting Researcher at the School of Architecture and Planning at the University of the Witwatersrand\, Johannesburg and a Glob al Scholar at the Woodrow Wilson Center for International Scholars\, Washi ngton DC.

As ‘whoonga’ has become more present in the Durban CBD\, the public and municipal government have come out in condemnation of drug users and of drug use. Attempts have been made to try to create a ‘drug free’ city through a war against drugs\, led by the police. Yet a number of questions remain unanswered and without answers to them the city of Du rban is likely to find that nothing has changed in regard to drug use and criminality. In fact\, current approaches to drug use might in fact be wor sening the harm of drug use. The seminar aims to bring a bit of clarity to these questions: Why do we problematize drug use? Why has street level dr ug use grown in Durban? Is it possible to eradicate drug use? How have the police responded to drug use in Durban\, and with what impact? Are there alternative and perhaps smarter ways of reducing the harm that drug use ca uses to individuals\, their families and to the city?\n\nAbout the Present er\nProf. Monique Marks currently heads up the newly established Urban Fut ures Centre at the Durban University of Technology (UFC@DUT). Initially tr ained as a social worker\, she has a doctorate in Sociology from the Unive rsity of Natal\, and writes predominantly in the field of criminology. She has published widely in the areas of youth social movements\, ethnographi c research methods\, police labour relations\, police organizational chang e and security governance. She has published four books: Young Warriors: Y outh Identity\, Politics and Violence in South Africa\; Transforming the R obocops: Changing Police in South Africa\; and Police Occupational Culture : New Debates and Directions (edited with Anne-Marie Singh and Megan O’N eill) and Police Reform from the Bottom Up (edited with David Sklansky). S he has also published over 45 peer reviewed articles and numerous reports. She sits on a number of journal editorial boards as well as the Board of Trustees of the Safer South Africa Foundation. In her research work on sec urity governance she has forged close relations with government\, both loc al and national. In recent years Monique has become interested in the poli cing of drug use and views herself as part of the harm reduction movement. \nKindly RSVP to confirm your attendance to ufcadmin@dut.ac.za\nLooking fo rward to seeing you at this seminar.\n\nPlease feel free to send this on t o others who might be interested.

Risk Terrain Modelling allows us to mitigate th e risk of crime and violence at micro places through the identification of risky features of the urban landscape in question. This new understanding of how urban features can co-occur and function as geographic facilitator s of crime allows for custodians of urban spaces such as the police and th e municipality to act in reducing crime in the short-­‐term and mitigat e the spatial risk factors at places so they were less attractive to crimi nals in the long-­‐term."\n\nAbout the Presenter\n\nChris Overall has s erved in law enforcement structures for 28 years\, first in the South Afri can Police Service in an operational capacity and then as a Civilian Advis er/ Analyst in the Durban Metropolitan Police Service. He has a background in Crime Mapping / Intelligence and Geographic Profiling analysis and is currently attached to the Urban Futures Centre at the Durban University of Technology as a visiting researcher. His current work focus is on geo-spa tial intelligence analysis and crime mapping as a decision support system within the law enforcement domain as well as providing assistance to speci alised units in the South African Police Service when required.  Chris ha s a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from University of South Africa and a Post Graduate Diploma in Investigative Psychology from the Centre for In vestigative Psychology \, University of Liverpool.\n\nKindly RSVP to confi rm your attendance to ufcadmin@dut.ac.za CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:148@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20160224T130000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20160224T140000 DTSTAMP:20160216T124953Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/financial-wellness-workshop/ SUMMARY:Financial Wellness Workshop DESCRIPTION:DUT  Hotel School Conference venue.\n\nFor more information pl ease see attached invite.

Euripidou and J. Bell\nDate: Wednes day\, 2 March 2016\nTime: 12:00 to 13:30\nVenue: BS2103\, Level 1\, S2 Blo ck\, Steve Biko Campus. Entrance from gate 1 and 2.\n79 Steve Biko road.\n \nAbout the Presentation\nBackground: The Lancet\, in a recent report impl icated climate change as the “biggest global health threat of the 21st c entury”\, defining climate change as a “health issue” and not just a n environmental issue. The health sector paradoxically contributes signifi cantly to global environmental problems through the products and technolog ies it deploys\, the resources it consumes and the waste it generates\, ma king it an unintentional contributor to factors that undermine public heal th.\nObjectives &\; Method: GGHH aims to evolve the “Hippocratic Oath ”\, first do no harm beyond the immediacy of doctor patient relationship to a more global vision of health that also considers the health of the c ommunity and the environment that supports it. GGHH builds on good work ha ppening globally and engenders an approach to sustainability and health th at can be replicated by thousands of diverse hospitals and health systems globally. The GGHH Agenda\, consisting of 10 interconnected goals\, provid es a comprehensive framework for the health sector to achieve greater sust ainability and improved public health. Hospitals and health systems global ly are encouraged to sign up to GGHH\, and commit to a minimum of two goal s. The goals include issues such as Leadership\, Water and Energy Efficien cy\, Waste and Hazardous Chemical Management.\nResults &\; Conclusion: GGHH has created a global learning community of hospitals\, health systems \, and health organizations dedicated to sustainability and environmental health. Members benefit from GGHH tools\, resources\, and experts to bench mark\, track their progress\, achieve their goals and share their successe s. The health sector needs to take a leadership role in transforming itsel f and changing its practice so that it can become a force of greater heali ng to the environment that sustains us all.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nLuqman Yesufu works as an Environmental Health Campaigner for groundwork\, South Africa which is an environmental justice non-governmental organisation ba sed in Pietermaritzburg. He is currently the focal person for the Global G reen and Healthy Hospital (GGHH) initiative in Africa. In this role\, he i s tasked with developing the GGHH membership outreach and engagement in th e Africa\, assisting member hospitals in the region to achieve greater sus tainability and improved public environmental health.\n\nKindly RSVP to co nfirm your attendance to ufcadmin@dut.ac.za Please feel free to send this on to others who might be interested.\nLooking forward to seeing you at th is seminar.

Entrance from gate 1 and 2. 79 Steve Biko road.\n\n \n\nAbout the Presentation\n\nCities in the global South are growing rapidly\; simul taneously they experience youth bulges. In the context of very rapid urban ization processes\, construction booms create and absorb large numbers of low skilled jobs. However as urban growth slows down\, youth unemployment becomes a major challenge for the formal urban system. This creates profit able opportunities for political and illicit entrepreneurs that are ready to take advantage of idle youths\, both as expendable workforce to carry t he risk burden in “informal “ operations including selling smuggled go ods and drugs\, as well as captive consumers of many of these goods. Howev er\, cash flows coming from the urban informal system need to be laundered \; thus\, in large cites the circuit with the formal urban economic system is closed by means of sophisticated schemes\, usually in the form of alli ances between local politicians and formal construction businesses. The ca se of Bogotá allows to clearly illustrate how this mechanism works.\n\n&n bsp\;\n\nAbout the Presenter\n\nBernardo Pérez Salazar is an independent researcher based in Bogotá\, Colombia. His expertise lies at the crossr oads of transnational organized crime\, environmental conflicts associated with extractive industries and urban security and safety. He has lead an d published research in these fields for National Police of Colombia\, the office of Bogotá’s Secretary of Government\, the office of Colombia’ s General Comptroller\, UN HABITAT\, among others.

This emergence involves the reframing of the en vironment as a brown issue articulating the discourse of red (Social)\, En vironmental Justice (Brown) and Nature (Green) in a rights space notion to ensure that democracy is properly practised. SDCEA has brought about diff erent methods and tools to pursue these strategic goals of democratic oppo sition by using signs\, politics and action to establish groups challengin g environmental knowledge and expertise. SDCEA has used their own indigeno us knowledge including their own equipment and experience to deal with the issue of pollution. The knowledge that has been developed by SDCEA has be en used strategically and extensively to argue for a clean and healthy env ironment. SDCEA has embarked in creating awareness in South Durban about p eople’s environmental rights and ways in which we can all get involved t o ensure that industries that operate on our fence-line adhere to their pe rmits and regulations. There had been an overwhelming response by the comm unity in understanding the issues that the people of south Durban are plag ued with. This presentation uses the case of environmental politics in whi ch SDCEA through its networks and community based structures has deployed and advocated for a clean and healthy environment.  This deployment of in digenous knowledge and local action programs by SDCEA represents a broader challenge to the power of science and technology base on the increasing i nformation of the hazards and risks ordinary people suffer on a daily basi s in the South Durban. South Durban has been one of South Africa’s strat egic industrial areas that feed into the national economy and has the wors t record on environmental pollution that’s impacts on people’s health\ , well-being and quality of life.\n\n \;\n\nAbout the Presenter\n\nDes mond is Coordinating Director\, South Durban Community Environmental Allia nce (SDCEA) and the KZN Coordinator of the Right2KNOW Campaign which is a national campaign against the draft secrecy laws such as the Protection of Information Bill and the Media Appeals Tribunal.

The statistics of Registered Architectural Professionals reflect an unacceptably low level o f women in architecture in SA\, while the demographics of this small group highlight the extensive marginalization of previously disadvantaged women . Reasons behind the imbalance and marginalization of previously disadvant aged women will be outlined\, together with the objectives\, the approach\ , and outline of the programme. The status of work done to date in KwaZulu Natal by the SAIA KZNIA\, and nationally by SAIA will be discussed\, with its challenges and lessons learned.\n\nThe presenters are all involved in the WiASA initiative in KZN.  Each will each share their journey in arch itecture as women. They will talk about their backgrounds\, their families \, work life balance\, their experience of the construction industry\, pri vate sector clients\, organisations representing the profession\, architec tural education\, academia\, research\, economic empowerment\, sustainabil ity and transformation.\n\n“Our vision for a healthy and transformed arc hitectural profession includes practices\, institutions and organisations which are able to address our diversity\, and be inclusive of gender\, rac e\, class\, culture\, ability\, sexual orientation and religion. These wil l be the new creative spaces where all members of the profession understan d and respect each other\, and act in a socially responsible manner. This can only result in excellence in architecture.”\n\n \;\n\nAbout the Presenters\n\nKARUNI NAIDOO  completed a B.Architecture in 1988 at the Un iversity of Natal (UKZN) at the height of apartheid.

Please join us as in yet another interesting seminar on informal t ransaction processes in RDP housing.\n\nTopic : Informal Transaction proce sses in RDP Housing: An entanglement of customary and Western practices\nP resenter: Sandile Mbatha\nDate: Wednesday\, 4 May 2016\nTime: 12:00 to 13: 30\nVenue: BS2103\, Level 1\, S2 Block\, Steve Biko Campus. Entrance from gate 1 and 2. 79 Steve Biko road.\n\nAbout the Presentation\nThere is a wi dely debated assumption that beneficiaries or the Reconstruction and Devel opment Program (RDP) are indeed transacting their houses informally. While this perception exist\, it is compounded by limited appreciation and unde rstanding of transaction processes and what informs them. The paper focuse s on how RDP beneficiaries engage in informal transaction processes using both customary and Western practices. There is a customary-Western entangl ement in how they transact their properties. It challenges how property re lations are understood by both local government institutions and planning and housing practitioners. Further highlighted by these informal transacti on processes are deep seated urban citizenship challenges experienced by R DP beneficiaries. Through navigating customary-Western entanglements\, RDP beneficiaries claim their right to the city and thereby challenge the sta tus quo of post-apartheid urban citizenship. The paper advances the argume nt that post-apartheid urban governance has not adjusted to the changing s ocio-cultural and economic dynamics of its citizens. The manner in which t he urban poor transact their RDP houses should be understood within a broa der framework of their struggle to lay claim to the post-apartheid city.\n \nAbout the Presenters\nSandile Mbatha is a PhD candidate at the Universit y of Stuttgart in Germany. His PhD project focuses on informal transaction s in low income housing in South Africa. His main areas of research intere st include housing and informality\; water\, sanitation and peri-urbanism.

As networks in the global complex capitalist e conomy\, they have been constituted as nodes for the movements of goods\, capital and bodies. The direction and content of changes in megacities sho uld be understood through careful assessment of global and local dynamics\ , and\, indeed\, their interface. In the South African context\, we notice \, on one hand\, the impact of the global restructuration of capitalist sy stem which has so far determined the direction of flow of capital and good s\, and movement of bodies\; on the other hand\, both legacies of aparthei d and associated (re)actions in the post-apartheid state are trying to con figure and reconfigure the social and economic lives in these megacities.   It should also be noted that the interactions and interface of these tw o developments noted here are important determinants of (re)configuration of megacities. Johannesburg and Durban\, as African megacities\, are chang ing under these conditions. Transformation and reconfiguration of many of the residential and Central Business Districts of both cities follow these patterns. These changes also pose challenges and opportunities for develo pment planning and governance of megacities.\n\nMy intention in this paper is: one\, to explore the intricate way in which flows of capital and good s are entangled with movement of bodies (which much of the literature on t his subject has discounted for long)\; two\, to problematise these changes by moving away from structural and materialist explanation of them\, and appraise the inventive ways in which marked bodies\, through their movemen ts and practices\, write their script on these structures of megacities an d their transformation\; and finally\, examine existing practices of manag ement and planning of changes in these megacities. By exploring life exper iences and economic activities of foreign African migrants in Durban and J ohannesburg\, and their interaction with local structures\, this paper see ks to generate insight into how movement of bodies\, by shifting the flow of capital and goods\, is shaping and transforming the character and struc ture of megacities in South Africa.\n\n \;\n\n \;\n\nAbout the Pre senter\n\nBiniam Misgun works at the School of Social Sciences\, Universit y of KwaZulu-Natal\, Howard College.

Entrance from gate 1 and 2. 79 St eve Biko road.\nAbout the Presentation\nIn lieu of an abstract\nThis is no t a happy story. A story of an oppressed and dehumanized people (especiall y post liberation) is never a happy story. This is in many ways also not a story. It is a dark theoretical musing about the post-liberation period – a lamentation of lamentations – which lies athwart our new postcolon y. Many moons ago\, Baldwin (1955:25) warned that the black “is a social \, not a personal or human problem – for to think of her is to think of statistics\, slums\, rapes\, injustices\, remote violence.” This blankin g of the black reigns supreme in the social sciences. Our work as scholars is therefore anchored on a dominant professional language and method that privileges certain places and people as authors\, and declares particular ways of knowing universal. How to expand the generally narrow and exclusi onary theoretical coda and include other ways of knowing? How can we use n arratives\, vignettes\, and stories to expose and unravel the subterranean scaffolding that keeps apartheid alive? How do we do so in conceptually a nd theoretically sound ways? What is the place of personal experience in a cademic research and writing? Who is our audience ultimately? This is what I worry about in this piece. Through the prism of tourist travel\, I use autoethnography and the narrative form to interrogate the “thingificatio n” (Fanon) of black subjects in tourism. Tourism has been touted as Sout h Africa’s post-apartheid peace dividend. Indeed\, the Department of Int ernational Relations and Cooperation has identified tourism as one of the key anchors of its strategies\, with contributions to GDP expected to hit R500 billion by 2020. Yet\, to many South Africans tourism is illusive and troublesome. Here\, I recount my own experiences of tourism beginning wit h a first encounter on a fateful night in 1993 and my continued struggles with this global phenomenon. I use these experiences to illuminate what I have termed hyperapartheid.\nThe paper was published in the Journal of Nar rative Politics 2\, no. 1 (2015)\, and is attached to this invitation.\nAb out the Presenter\nBorn in the undulating hills of Phatheni\, Richmond\, M vu is essentially a country bumpkin. One who does enjoy fine and fun thing s though\, especially food. His culinary appetite has spiced his academic work with intellectual interest in the social life and political economy o f indigenous vegetables (particularly imbuya or amaranth). He wonders how we got to know so much about indigenous medicines\, indigenous gardens\, a nd Nguni cattle and so little about indigenous vegetables. Thus\, agrarian issues such as land reform\, small-scale agriculture\, rural development\ , etc. form the kernel of his research interests. When he’s not thinking about food\, Mvu teaches in the Development Studies programme in the Scho ol of Built Environment and Development Studies (SBEDS) where he has been since 2010. His other academic interests include investigating the role of subjugated philosophies in International Relations. His is particularly i nterested in the local and global significance of ubuntu\, especially the contested social and political uses of this worldview. His background in I nternational Relations theory sustains an old flame of interest in the rel evance of Frantz Fanon to understanding international politics. Prior to j oining UKZN\, Mvu taught at American University in Washington D.C. and wor ked as a research analyst for the Service Employees International Union (S EIU). He dabbles in poetry\, plays beach volleyball and soccer\, and strug gles through Spanish classes during his spare time.\nPlease feel free to s end this on to others who might be interested.

Please join us for yet another interesting seminar presentation on the Dreaming Workshops.\n\nTopic : Dreaming Workshops\nPresenter: Kira Erwin\nDate: Wednesday\, 25 May 2016\nTime: 12:00 to 13:30\nVenue: BS2103 \, Level 1\, S2 Block\, Steve Biko Campus. Entrance from gate 1 and 2. 79 Steve Biko road.\n\nAbout the Presentation\nNon-racialism is one of the fo unding principles in the South African constitution and frequently found i n political\, media and public discourses. Yet there is little critical de bate or consensus on what lies within the concept. Its common use vaguely suggests a way to live together harmoniously in South Africa\, but this be lies both its contested history and its present lack of content.\n\nThis s tudy proposes to explore how Grade 10 and Grade 11 (approximately 14 – 1 7 year olds) South African school learners envision such a future. The pil ot study aims to give some content to the concept of non-racialism through the ideas and imaginings of young people. To our knowledge there is littl e work in South Africa on how ordinary people imagine a future non-racial society. Studies that do focus on non-racialism indicate that for many old er South Africans the realization of these ideals is best left to the youn ger generations who do not carry the historic baggage of their own generat ion. Romanticizing ‘untainted’ youth as able to transcend a troubled p ast is not an unusual response in transitional societies. However\, we nee d to be cautious of displacing responsibility for change onto the young in society particularly given the various ways in which inequality\, includi ng racial inequality\, is currently reproduced in South Africa.\n\nAcknowl edging this we do think it is important to listen carefully to the imagini ngs of young people’s dreams of a more socially just world. To do this w e use a methodology of Dreaming Workshops\; these sessions not only offer a space for utopian dreaming\, but importantly then use these dreams to id entify and reflect on practices and power relations in the present that cr eate obstacles or enablers to these future trajectories.\n\nThis seminar e xplores the methodology of Dreaming and presents some of the initial findi ngs from the study conducted by Kira Erwin and Kathryn Pillay.\n\nAbout th e Presenter\nKira is based at the Urban Futures Centre at the Durban Unive rsity of Technology. She has a Doctorate in Sociology from the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal\, and a Masters in Philosophy from Cambridge in the Unit ed Kingdom. Her research interests for the most part focus on race\, racia lism and racism\, as well as how these identities and power relations play out in particular urban spaces. She is increasingly interested in notions of the urban and cities and how they shape our lives. She is an ethnograp her who likes to explore participatory methods in research.\n\nPlease feel free to send this on to others who might be interested.

Entrance from gate 1 and 2. 79 Steve Biko road.\n\nAbout the Presentation\nThis presentation is based on my book Waves of Change: Globalisation and Seafaring labour M arkets (2016: HSRC Press). Over 90 per cent of the goods we use – from o ur smartphones to the fuel in our cars – are transported by ships. The c argo shipping industry is the most globalised industry in the world\, yet we know very little about the context in which these ships operate or the ways in which seafaring labour is organised. Drawing on evidence from Sout h Africa and the Philippines\, I will provide an account of globalisation\ , seafaring labour markets and the state that allows us to understand how processes of globalisation unfold in this industry. I will show that globa lisation does not always mean a ‘race to the bottom’ for workers: labo ur solidarity and interventionist states shape globalisation as much as sh ip owners do. This has important implications for broader understandings o f work\, labour markets\, technology and the ways in which the geographies of labour and capital are reconfigured. Scholars\, policy makers\, studen ts and those with a general interest in globalisation and labour will find this presentation of some interest as it provides a revelatory account of an industry about which little is generally known.\n\nFor more informatio n about the new book and to like the\nbook page go to: https://www.face book.com/WOCbook/\n\nAbout the Presenter\nShaun Ruggunan has a Ph.D. in In dustrial\, Organisational and Labour Studies. His work has focused on thre e areas\, the global transformation of seafaring labour markets\, the chan ging nature of professional work in South Africa and the need for a critic al management studies approach in teaching human resources management. Rug gunan has published in these areas in Maritime Management and Policy\, Hum an Resources Development International\, Human Resources for Health amongs t other journals. His work on global labour markets was one of the first S outh African scholarly attempt to understand how seafaring labour markets are configured and reconfigured due to the influence of labour market inst itutions including organised labour. His work has made inputs into maritim e policy for seafarer human resources development in South Africa.

DESCRIPTION:Dear friends of the UFC\,\n\nThe Urban Futures Centre (DUT) is pleased to invite you to its 15th seminar of the year! Join us for a prese ntation entitled "Inter-Sections"\, delivered by photographer Peter McKenz ie.\n\nPRESENTER: Peter McKenzie\nTOPIC: "Inter-Sections"\nDATE: Wednesday \, 8 June 2016\nTIME: 12H00-13H30\nVENUE: Steve Biko Campus - DUT\, S2 Blo ck\, Level 1\, BS2103. Entrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nABS TRACT - “Inter-sections”\n\n“African cities are characterized by inc reasingly flexible\, mobile and provisional intersections of residents tha t operate without clearly delineated notions of how the city is to be inha bited and used. These intersections\, particularly in the last two decades \, have depended on the ability of residents to engage complex combination s of objects\, spaces\, persons\, and practices.”\n- AbdouMaliq Simone ( 2012) Afropolis. City Media Art\n\nFollowing AbdouMaliq Simone’s insight ful observations\, Durban could be interpreted as a narrative where past a nd present are blurred\, where the apartheid borders of the inner city are today spaces of in-betweeness\, rich in possibility. The unpredictability of the urban spatial character\, and its fast shifting dynamics\, point t o a restlessness that in Durban is tempered by musty climes\, shaped by th e finiteness of the ocean as frontier. The city periphery – like tides\, voyaging\, still\, to the centre\, transgressing phases of inherited urba nity – intersects the impossible. Subliminal nodes the relics of the pas t: enter the wary Warwick\, across the healing bridge to seedy Casbah\, do wn new Dadoo to Pixley\, straight on to makwera Kinshasha\, the arse end o f the Golden Mile. These intersections could be interpreted as recalcitran t spirits\, having an obstinately uncooperative attitude toward authority or discipline\, here seen as a departure from the modernity of colonialism . This versus the ‘order’ sought by apartheid’s austerity. The restl ess city could be construed as a continual revolution\, redefining rules a gainst the backdrop of an alien metropolis.\n\nBIOGRAPHY\n\nPeter McKenzie has recently co-founded the Durban Center for Photography (DCP). The DCP hosts regular workshops\, photography student projects and exhibitions. He has recently exhibited on the ‘Rise and Fall of Apartheid’ at the Int ernational Center for Photography in 2013\, and three shows in France duri ng the French/SA seasons. He was an artist and co-curator of the recent ‘Homing’ exhibition at the KZNSA. He has lectured at Durban University of Technology\, Tswane University of Technology\, the Institute for the A dvancement of Journalism and the Market Photo Workshop\, and facilitated p hotography workshops internationally. McKenzie has exhibited extensively i nternationally and his writings on photography published widely. His prese nt pre-occupation in Durban is the re-imaging of urban space and a study o f the history of African photography.\n\nPlease feel free to share this in vitation to others who might be interested.\n\nKindly RSVP your attendance .\n\nWe look forward to seeing you at the seminar!

Entrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nAbstract - Understanding homelessness in Durban: A mixed-meth ods approach to starting an informed discussion about policies\nHomelessne ss is a multi-dimensional concept that can range from physical rooflessnes s to those in insecure housing and encompasses concepts of security\, belo nging\, dignity and access to basic human rights. While efforts have been made to understand homelessness within the Durban Context\, the HSRC study is the largest and most comprehensive attempt at understanding the nature and extent of homelessness in Durban. The study was designed as a multiph ase\, mixed methods study rooted in the principles of community based part icipatory action research (CBPAR). This study aimed to firstly better unde rstand the nature of homelessness in Durban through qualitative methodolog ies\, and then to determine how common narratives were through a census of all people living on the streets and in formal shelters in the Durban cen tral business district and immediate surrounds. The study was designed in a way that brought together various community based organisations\, govern mental organisations and academics working in the area of homelessness\, i n order to foster project ownership and serve as a platform to begin polic y discussions about homelessness.\nThe HSRC study found close to 4000 peop le living on the streets and in the shelters of Durban\, roughly evenly sp lit between the two spaces. Key pathways into homelessness include seeking employment and family related issues (including close family death and fa mily disagreement). Various sub-groups within the larger population emerge d and it emerged that these groups have very different pathways into homel essness and experiences of homelessness.\nPolicy discussions formed the fi nal component of this multiphase study and discussions highlighted the nee d for targeted interventions within 6 key themes of: job creation\, shelte rs\, law enforcement\, public awareness\, help/drop-in centres and targete d services. Homelessness is clearly a complex phenomenon affecting a range of individuals in different ways. There is no single or simple solution t o homelessness but rather a need for a range of tailored interventions tha t are evidence-based and brought about through effective co-ordination and strong leadership.\nBio\nFurzana Timol is a Researcher in the Human and S ocial Development unit of the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) of So uth Africa. She was the project manager for the study. Her research intere sts include econometrics and impact evaluations in the areas of child heal th and community development.\nCandice Groenewald is a Post-doctoral fello w at the Human and Social Development unit of the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) of South Africa. Her research interests include adolescent risk behaviours\, family studies\, and youth\, society and belonging.\nPle ase feel free to share this invitation to others who might be interested.\ nKindly RSVP your attendance.\nWe look forward to seeing you at the semina r CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:186@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20160718 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20160723 DTSTAMP:20160718T095922Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/harm-reduction-networking-zone-at-the-glo bal-village-during-the-aids-conference/ SUMMARY:Harm Reduction Networking Zone at the Global Village during the Aid s Conference DESCRIPTION:Dear friends of the UFC\,\n\n \;\n\nDuring the upcoming Aid s Conference the UFC\, together with TB/HIV Care will be responsible for s etting up and running a Harm Reduction Networking Zone.

Entrance Gat e 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road.\n\nAbstract - Gabriella Peppas and Jonas Barausse began Interpret Durban in 2010. What started as a simple t-shirt design contest with 15 artists participating and a pair of sneakers for 1 st place has since grown into Durban’s most established youth creative c ontest boasting 5 categories including Architecture\, Graphic Design\, Vis ual Art\, Video and photography with an accumulated prize value in excess of R200 000. No small feat. The event now draws students and scholars alik e to participate in the contest as well as young professional’s keen to test their muscle and measure themselves up against their home town peers. But it’s become about more than that. Interpret Durban has become an ev ent for Durban and by Durban. A chance for Durban’s creatives to reflect on the city they call home through their art and then showcase that art t o their fellow citizens allowing them a unique and fresh perspective on th e place they call home. It’s not every day you can attend an event focus ed around showcasing a city through the eyes of its young and up and comin g creatives\, and perhaps that is why Interpret Durban has become so antic ipated as each event comes by. This year’s event (Interpret Durban 7) is going to be held on August 20th and promises to be the most solid instalm ent yet.

The target for the wo rkshops was out-of-school youth\, who were trained in a weekly session to find their inner voice\, through sonic expression\, in so doing also enabl ing them to mature leadership-wise and attain life-changing socioeconomic habits. Mhlambi chose to invite specifically those who believed they could n’t sing\, or were unmusical\, out of the belief that when a person lear ns to make noise\, to scream\, it can change them. They can be healed from past failures\, and given the ability to persevere.\n\nUnited States' fem inist scholar\, Anne Cvetkovich’s work\, in 'An Archive of Feelings' dem onstrates how active participation through performance and literature prom ote public cultures that work through trauma and transform its conditions of possibility.

The Reunionese Company has included two talents to make this year’s s how an international collaboration. Joining them are acrobats Maheriniaina Pierre Ranaivoson of Chapitô from Madagascar and Zip Zap Circus’ Lizo James from Cape Town.\n In Reunion creole\, ‘la pli i donn’ is an exp ression which means ‘it's pouring with rain’.\n The principal perform ers from Cirquons Flex are both of French origin\; Virginie Le Flaouter tr ained at the National Circus School of Montreal\, and Vincent Maillot\, a self-taught artist.\n The show builds on the experience and encounters br ought about during Cirquons Flex's travels and residencies in India\, Mada gascar and South Africa over the past two years. \n This project opens up a dialogue that is prevalent in but not unique to Reunion Island. It expl ores and celebrates an intercultural exchange around the diversities of th e Indian Ocean region with a script enriched by the particularities of cir cus performance. La Pli I Donn brings together four acrobats from Reunio n Island\, Madagascar and South Africa – countries close geographically yet each rich in their own unique influences and characteristics.\n The p roduction is a once in a lifetime experience and it is brought to Durban b y the Alliance Française de Durban\; in partnership with the Durban Univ ersity of Technology and the French Institute in South Africa (IFAS).\n V incent Frontczyk\, Director for Alliance Française de Durban stated\, “We are extremely proud to be bringing this collaboration back to South Africa. Last year Cirquons Flex had such a whirlwind tour that not many people had the privilege of experiencing this act.

The research presented here takes up this call and examines the everydayness of planning practice in the city of Durban\, wit h a specific focus on knowledges of land use planning\, as central to plan ning practice. The research was framed through a multi-conceptual framewor k\, used in a practical and advocacy manner to guide and make sense of the empirical findings. Multiple qualitative research methods were used in th is research\, including institutional ethnography\, informant interviews w ith municipal planning officials\, planning consultants and local resident s\, as well as a review of key land use planning documentation and policy. \n\nThe research findings show how two parallel planning ideologies are at work in the planning offices in the city. The first is steeped in traditi onal planning concerns\, informed by the planning profession both within a nd outside the municipality. Here legislation and planning ‘artifacts’ \, specifically strategic spatial plans and town planning schemes remain d ominant. Planning practices influenced by this ideology advocates for ‘m ore of the same’ - planning with more clout\, more or better legislation and improved linkages to municipal budgets. The second is an emerging pla nning ideology where a multiplicity of stakeholders are seen as holding an d acting on important knowledges for land use planning. Planning practices influenced by this ideology are ready to engage with the practical and me ssy realities of everyday stakeholder experiences\, which is valued as cri tical to developing new planning modes. Whilst the former ideology remains dominate\, and the latter waits for recognition\, it is in the interplay and negotiations between these formal and\, as yet\, unwritten ways of kno wing and doing planning that opportunities to rethink and confront plannin g practice can be found.\n\nThe seminar presents some of the new planning opportunities for theory and practice that arise from this negotiated spac e. Based on these empirical findings the seminar then opens for a panel an d audience discussion on the possibilities of expanding knowledges to crea te practice-informed relevance in planning.\n\nPROGRAMME:\n07:30- 08:15 – Registration and Breakfast\n08:15- 08:30 – Welcome and Purpose of Se ssion 08:30- 09:30 – Presentation\n09:30- 10:15 – Panel Responses\n10: 15- 11:15 – Open Discussions\n11:15- 11:30 – Way Forward and Closure\n \nKEY OBJECTIVES:\n1. To provide a shared platform for constructive delibe rations between city practitioners\, academia and key stakeholders to meet and discuss planning theory and practices in the city.\n2. To allow for t he sharing on a range of options that could contribute\, influence or addr ess expanding knowledges to create practice-informed relevance in planning .\n\n \;\n\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/10 /Invite-BESS-14low.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:209@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20161117 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg;VALUE=DATE:20161118 DTSTAMP:20160913T103557Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/inclusive-cities-symposium-the-port/ SUMMARY:Inclusive Cities Symposium: The Port DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join us for the Inclusive Cities Symposium: The Port\n\nDate: Thursday\, 17th November 2016\n\nTime: 8:30am – 4:30p m\n\nVenue: DUT Steve Biko Campus\, S2 Block\n\nThe Urban Futures Centre ( UFC) and the South Durban Community Environmental Alliance (SDCEA) are joi ntly hosting the first ‘Inclusive City Symposium’\, focusing on the po rt of Durban.

The initiativ e was implemented in 2014 at a Technical Vocational Education and Training (TVET) College in KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) and involved 20 newly formed peer e ducators and one lecturer from the college. We focussed on work that empha sised the creation of a safe and welcoming environment for gender non-conf orming students. In particular\, we made use of film and transformative pe dagogy to address homophobia at the TVET College. Through analysing the pa rticipants’ reflections we found evidence that the intervention facilita ted students’ critical thinking and self-examination\, while helping the m find alternative ways of bringing about social change and gender equity in their ‘day-to-day praxis’. The initiative further provided space to forge new ways of talking about and addressing abuse of LGBTI students\; thus enabling an appreciation of the resourcefulness of film. Overall\, we highlight the potential value of film and transformative pedagogy in addr essing homophobia and disturbing heteronormativity among students in a TVE T college.\n\n \;\n\nBio:\n\nMelusi Dlamini works as a Project Officer in the HIV/AIDS Centre at the Durban University of Technology.

What i s of particular interest in their analysis\, however\, is the observation that governments of rapidly growing cities make very little time for learn ing from other cities to improve their own planning processes. Whilst the above assertion may be true\, targeted research on city-to-city (C2C) lear ning conducted predominantly in the global North is showing that cities ar e in fact quietly forming an international web-work of learning representi ng an almost invisible\, underground knowledge economy. There is a highly conspicuous void in empirical research into C2C learning in urban strategi c planning processes in the (southern) African context. This seminar prese nts a doctoral study focusing on a United Cities and Local Government (UCL G) case study using the experience of three African cities\, Durban in Sou th Africa\, Otjiwarongo in Namibia and Mzuzu in Malawi\, to shed light on the phenomenon of C2C learning.

In 2012\, the Fortune Cookie Theatre Company’ s critically acclaimed production of Molière’s Miser was sold out and w on four Naledi Awards. Now in 2017\, Sylvaine Strike and the Fortune Cooki e Theatre Company are taking Molière to the next level with a national to ur scheduled in Soweto\, Durban\, Cape Town\, Johannesburg and more dates to come! Soweto Theatre is proud to showcase the genius of Molière\, one of France’s most accomplished and universal artists. His masterpiece Tar tuffe will be played by a brilliant South African cast\, within a context never seen before and which promises a lot of surprises. Come take a peek behind the curtain and see how the theatre magic is made!\nTartuffe is bro ught to you by the Fortune Cookie Theatre Company\, the French Institute o f South Africa (IFAS) and the Alliance Française in South Africa\, with t he support of Total South Africa\, BNP Paribas and RCS (a BNP Paribas grou p company) and Mazars South Africa.\n\nTartuffe\, or The Impostor\, or The Hypocrite\, first performed in 1664\, is one of the most famous theatrica l comedies by Molière. The characters of Tartuffe\, Elmire\, and Orgon ar e considered among the greatest classical theatre roles. A comedy in five acts\, Molière relates the story of an attempt\, by an irreclaimable hypo crite\, to destroy the domestic happiness of a citizen who\, charmed by hi s seeming piety\, has received him as a prominent guest. In painting such a portrait\, this lively assailant of Parisian foibles was in a new elemen t\, though one that proved to him perfectly congenial. His genius had a se rious side\, and on that side he was unquestionably at his best\, the char acter of Tartuffe being drawn with a strength and precision which few dram atists have equalled.\n\nBy a process of self-revelation\, and almost with out the aid of dialogue or soliloquy\, the heart of a man who could neithe r desire nor endure any close investigation is discovered and ascertained in all its intricacies\, with the certainty of navigators tracing the line and bearings of an unknown shore. True religion is never confounded with hypocrisy\, but is upheld with warmth that suggests the fervour of his own religious sentiment\, which shows his characteristic hatred of imposture in any shape.\n\nThe first three acts were produced during the fêtes held at Versailles\, nominally in honour of the Queen and Anne of Austria\, bu t really to please the maid of honour who had now become the King’s mist ress. It would be impossible to exaggerate the effect produced by this gru esome picture upon its first beholders – upon the mass of revellers who\ , resplendent in masquerade attire\, filled the theatre in every part. Not only did the entertainment differ entirely from what they had expected\, but the author\, who seems to have been born to make the world laugh at it self\, showed that he also had the power to confront them with one of the deepest mysteries of human existence.\n\nThe king at once perceived the ge nius displayed in Tartuffe\, and was also clear-headed enough to see that it was aimed exclusively against hypocrisy\; but from the moment it made i ts appearance in Paris another and heavier storm began to rage over the he ad of the dramatist. According to his assailants\, he had at length thrown aside the mask altogether\, and under pretence of exposing hypocrisy was seeking to undermine the foundations of religion itself. Roullés\, the cu ré of Siant Barthélemy\, took upon himself to damn the author of Tartuff e on his own authority\, and another virulent denouncer of the play was th e bishop of Autun\, supposed to be the original of the stage imposter. The agitation steadily increased until the King deemed it prudent to prohibit the performance in Paris of a play which he had unreservedly approved.\n\ nIrritated by his disappointment\, Molière registered a vow that\, sooner or later\, the interdiction should be set aside\, and before long awakene d such a friendly interest in his drama among the leaders of society as to induce the king to withdraw his prohibition. This was made the easier by the anxiety of the fashionable world to taste the forbidden fruit\, the sa lons competing with each other in their inducements to have Tartuffe read in the presence of a select audience\; for “no greater pleasure\,” the y said\, “Could be afforded them.” Molière complied with many of thes e requests\, inasmuch as they gave him an opportunity of dispelling the nu mberless misapprehensions in regard to his play\, and of inspiring a wish to see it performed on the stage. His first private reading was before the pope’s legate and a party of prelates\, who\, imagining Tartuffe to be a covert satire against the Jansenists – an idea which\, however erroneo us\, the author took no pains to dispel – decided very strongly in its f avour. The Jansenists placed on it an entirely different construction\, wh ile Molière\, adroitly answering the questions put to him\, managed to wi n over both sides\, and that without suffering any twinges of conscience.\ n\nMoliere’s Tartuffe will be showcasing at DUT’s Courtyard from Wedne sday\, 24 May to Friday\, 26 May 2017.

Entrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Stev e Biko Road\n\nAbstract:\nA recent study by Lombard and Crankshaw found th at only 1% of white Durbanites were unemployed\, and\, perhaps more remark ably\, the proportion of whites in high-skilled\, high-income jobs actuall y increased from 60% to 78% from 2005 to 2014. This contradicts the view t hat affirmative action policies would severely damage the prospects of whi te South Africans. What explains these figures? Addressing social im/mobil ity among whites\, this talk is based on research on schools and communiti es in working-class formerly-white areas of South Durban. It argues\, firs t\, that we need to make a conceptual shift from simply studying white peo ple to studying whiteness. Second\, we need to understand the dynamics of a semi-privatised schooling system that gives a high value to a school’s “white tone.” With important exceptions\, including poorer children a nd children of single mothers\, the market for schooling drives the daily movement of white learners from South Durban into more “traditional” a nd centrally located “Harry Potter schools”—ones their parents may w ell have been excluded from previously. Third\, we need to explore changes in family forms using concepts typically applied to black but not white S outh Africans\, such as the “extended family.” Fourth\, we need to und erstand how advantageous social networks are grounded in local places. The talk concludes with some thoughts on the role of schooling in South Afric a’s race-class-space transformations.\n\nBio:\nMark Hunter is Associate Professor at the University of Toronto and Honorary Research Fellow at the University of KwaZulu-Natal.

How are historians to make sense of the anger of the born-free generation—those born after the formal collapse of apartheid in 1994— towards their parents’ generation\, as well as the born-frees’ rejecti on of the political settlement that brought about the New South Africa? Is this anger an expression of a historical trauma? If so\, how is the traum a of the past transmitted across generations? Drawing on insights from a r ange of disciplines\, including Philosophy\, Psychology\, Holocaust Studie s\, Memory Studies and the Sociology of Emotions\, I intend to address the above questions in ways that might help us think differently about our at tempts to forge a new nation in South Africa. My talk draws on a range of sources\, including the archives of the Truth and Reconciliation Commissio n\, to develop an approach that is both grounded historically but also cau tiously speculative. My aim is to understand how ordinary South Africans r emember histories of violence and how their memories of this violence are shared across generations. How\, in short\, do these memories become Histo ry? What does it mean to remember your parents’ pain of humiliation when you yourself never experienced that humiliation?

The PhD compares the Creative District in Rio de Janeiro and the Maboneng Precinct in Johannesburg as two new creative hubs in the South in order to analyse the transformation of the economy of the areas ( from manufacturing to creative) and how this transformation affects the ph ysical and social environment around these two neighbourhoods. Often linke d to urban regeneration projects "creative hubs" arise in the city\, where local (and international) elites define urban enclaves\, which work as ci ty-state and concentrate power and elite interests. On sale is not simply a working or residential space\, but a lifestyle which has no dialogue wit h the reality of the original lived spaces. This research interrogates who these new economic subjects are\, the sustainability and interests of the se new economies and who the real beneficiaries are. It analyses the pheno mena of gentrification in the South as a new form of colonialism acting bo th in a local and global scale\, reproducing relations of power and contro l on societies already marked by serious indexes of inequality\, and reaff irming the intricate relation that characterized colonial societies\n\n&nb sp\;\n\nBio:\n\nLaura Burocco is currently a PhD candidate at Escola de Co municação da Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro\, Communication Tech nologies and Aesthetic field of research\, CAPES scholarship.

Yet currently in Durban\, and in South Africa\, good evidenced -based interventions to reduce the harm associated with drug use do not ex ist in Durban. Existing ‘rehabilitation’ programmes have very low leve l of success\, particularly for heroin users. It is for this reason that t he Urban Futures Center at DUT\, together with TB HIV Care established Sou th Africa’s first low threshold Opioid Substitution Therapy (OST) progra mme\, as a means for demonstrating the effectiveness of OST and for advoca ting for making OST publicly available. In order to advocate for this\, it is critical to be able to demonstrate that access to good OST leads to a marked improvement in quality of life.  Ethnographic observations\, inter views and focus group discussions have been conducted to establish the pat hways of the 50 beneficiaries who are part of the Durban OST Demonstration Project. This seminar provides insight into the life changes that have ta ken place since the programme began in April 2017. These findings will be used in advocating for the necessity for the public provision of OST to pe ople who use drugs and are keen to turn their lives around.\n\nBio:\n\nSib onelo Gumede is a research manager at the Urban Futures Centre working on the Opioid Substitution Therapy project.

The show contains two main aspects: the imposition of power and taxation\, a heavy burden for which the Zulus had understanding on\, and the steady and arrogant interference of Western culture that threatened the survival of the Zulu sense of identity. In Insumansumane disrespect of people\, cul ture and lack of consultation are some of the major issues. The Colonial A rmy attacked and destroyed the Zulu villages and chief Bhambada declared a rebellion and attacked the British army.\n\nUkufa kukaShaka (The Death of Shaka)\nThe tragic undertones in Elliot Zondi’s drama Ukufa kukaShaka “The Death of King Shaka Zulu –1960. Zondi’s view point and his pers pective of assassination of Shaka were deeply influenced by the South Afri can apartheid era. The tragic heroes fall was caused by his own overconfid ence. Shaka believed he was the chosen one by the ancestors to rule over t he Zulu Nation. This belief made him forget that he is human\, which resul ted in him making numerous miscalculations and lead to his doom of death.\ n\nTicket prices are R50 for adults and R20 for students with current stud ent cards.\nFor bookings please contact Mrs Lebohang Sibisi on 031 373 219 4 or alternatively lebohangs@dut.ac.za ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/05 /Poster.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:308@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180516T140000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180516T160000 DTSTAMP:20180515T100901Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/ufc-seminar-using-technology-to-improve-r efugee-and-migrant-access-to-sexual-and-reproductive-health-care/ SUMMARY:UFC Seminar: ‘Using technology to improve refugee and migrant acc ess to sexual and reproductive health care DESCRIPTION:Dear friends of the UFC\,\n\nPlease join the AIDS Foundation of South Africa and The Florence Foundation Seminar presentation entitled\, ‘Using technology to improve refugee and migrant access to sexual and re productive health care?’\, Hosted by DUT’s Urban Futures Centre.\n\nPR ESENTER: Deborah Ewing \, Emma Goutte-Gattat\, Aron Hagos Tesfai\nTOPIC: ‘Using technology to improve refugee and migrant access to sexual and re productive health care?’\nDATE: Wednesday\, 16th May 2018\nTIME: 14:00 –16:00\nVENUE: Steve Biko Campus - DUT\, UFC offices\, S2 Block\, Level 4\, Room DP4.01B (UFC Common Room).

Entrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nAbstract\n This article examines the failed attempt by the Hong Kong-Listed Shanghai Zendai to enter the South African property market with a multi-decade mixe d-use project of around 60\,000 residential units and 1.5 million square m eters of office space. In particular we track the developer’s efforts to gain approval for a master plan during the course of 2015. Despite the de veloper contracting British and South African consultants to exert sophist icated soft power in negotiating the deal\, regulatory authorities did not immediately approve the masterplan over concerns that the proposed projec t would be too exclusive and not well integrated into the rest of the city . The project eventually collapsed as a result of delays in approval\, ina dequate finance\, and a less dynamic market than the developer hoped for. We use this case to interrogate the nature and implications of transnation al urbanisation. The case illustrates the way in which global investors so metimes fail to assert their will over distant contexts and that actors in these contexts can have agency with significant consequences. Furthermore we argue that the meaning of transnational urbanism should not be reduced to a developer’s investment in another country\, but the also the circu lation of finance\, professionals and information within a broader assembl age of institutions and actors enlisted in the project. Finally the case s hows that even developers who have travelled across borders can in some wa ys be ‘local’\, insofar as they take on personnel and even the rhetori c from the host context.

His research has followed two broad themes. The first is the way in which white people have reacted to desegregation as experienced in post-apartheid cities. This includes reactions to street traders\, sha ck dwellers\, desegregating suburbs\, and an analysis of gated communities . The second is the way in which government and the public interact in the context of poverty and joblessness\, with a particular interest in social movements\, participatory mechanisms\, the role of ward and PR councillor s\, and social policy mechanisms such as cash transfers. His research at G CRO includes urban mixing and new large scale private developments.\n\nKin dly take note of the venue (UFC Common Room).\nPlease feel free to share t his invitation to others who might be interested.\nKindly RSVP your attend ance to fathimaa1@dut.ac.za\n\nWe look forward to seeing you at the semina r!\nKind Regards CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:320@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180620T093000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180620T113000 DTSTAMP:20180607T092756Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/seminar-next-step-planning-the-road-to-re tirement/ SUMMARY:Seminar- Next step - planning the Road to retirement DESCRIPTION: CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:321@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180621T180000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20180621T213000 DTSTAMP:20180612T152451Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/event-world-refugee-day-screening-of-voet sek-us-brothers/ SUMMARY:Event: World Refugee Day Screening of Voetsek!

Using longitudinal data from the National Income Dynamics Study to track changes in well-being over time\, we find that unemployment falls and poverty levels are cut in half for rural-urban migrants during the period 2008 to 2014. Notwithstanding the complex rela tionship between migration and social mobility\, urbanisation can be a pow erful agent for change. Government ambivalence about urbanisation should b e replaced by a more positive and pro-active approach which recognises mig rants’ self-determination and supports the provision of improved shelter \, essential infrastructure and assistance with economic integration.\n\nB io: Dr Justin Visagie is a research specialist at the Human Sciences Resea rch Council with a focus on urban economics\, development economics and ap plied microeconomic research.

These have arisen mo stly from one of two scenarios: the eviction of poor\, “illegal” inhab itants from inner-city buildings\; or the relocation of poor inhabitants f rom informal settlements. This presentation analyses the argument and judg ments in a cross section of these cases and considers the legal framework that has emerged from the judgments. The focus is\, first\, on the Constit utional Court’s understanding of the entitlements embodied by the housin g right\, secondly\, on the factors that impact on and constrain the manne r in which it judges housing matters and\, thirdly\, on the way in which t he Court has attempted to balance the competing interests involved in thes e cases while preserving for government a margin of discretion within whic h to govern cities and pursue legitimate policy objectives\n\nBio: Marius Pieterse is a professor of law at the University of the Witwatersrand in J ohannesburg\, where he teaches constitutional law and human rights law.

Andrew Brose\nVENUE: Steve B iko Campus - DUT\, UFC offices\, S2 Block\, Level 4\, Room DP4.01B (UFC Co mmon Room).\nEntrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nResearch Abst ract:\nIn late 2018\, the not for profit architecture firm\, MASS Design G roup and global health expert\, Advanced Access and Delivery\, collaborati vely developed the design and operational guidelines for a new Harm Reduct ion Centre for the City of Durban\, South Africa. Building upon the subseq uent attention from officials and other organizations working to reverse t he opioid overdose epidemic\, the two teams began to research and compile standards for the design of safe spaces providing dignity and safety to mi llions. Having conducted workshops and interviews with infectious disease response teams\, outreach programs\, city officials\, homeless individuals \, and people who consume drugs\, MASS and AA&\;D are critically positi oned to develop the new standard for harm reduction and overdose preventio n programs and the spaces in which they operate. The team is continuing to engage with international safe consumption spaces\, meet with experts in the field\, and advocate for the funding and implementation of spaces prov iding hope across South Arica.\n\nTshepo Mokholo:\nTshepo was brought onto the MASS team full-time in September of 2018. He is part of the 2016 inau gural cohort of fellows at the African Design Centre\, a unique training p rogram for recent graduates of architecture and engineering. Born and rais ed in South Africa\, he garnered his Bachelor of Architecture (HONS) from the University of Pretoria in 2015. Tshepo is a irm believer that design c an and should have a positive impact on communities. This can be done thro ugh incorporating those communities in the design process. By harnessing t heir knowledge and skills\, one can only create better design that is both appreciated and leaves a more profound impact. Through architecture\, we can share skills and knowledge\, and provide employment in the process\, f eeding back into local economies.\n\nAndrew Brose:\nAndrew leads the South Africa Lab\, established to address regional issues of inequality in hous ing\, environment\, and health. He originally joined MASS in 2010 as a Des ign Fellow in Rwanda\, where he worked on the design and construction of p rojects across the region\, including the Umubano Primary School\, Mubuga Primary School\, Butaro Doctors Housing\, and Rwinkwavu Village Housing. I n 2014\, Andrew moved to the Democratic Republic of the Congo\, to serve a s the project manager for the Ilima Conservation School where he supervise d the construction management and documentation of the unique engagement p rocess. He received a Masters of Science in Architecture and Building Tech nology from MIT where he was the recipient of a TATA Center Fellowship and the 2018 Tucker Voss award for Building Technology. Andrew completed his Bachelor of Architecture at the University of Oregon.

Th e first DUT Silent Protest was held in August 2015 in partnership with AID S Healthcare Foundation\, and received the support of over a thousand stud ents and staff members.\n\nDUT Silent Protest aims to raise awareness not only about gender based violence but also to show solidarity with survivor s of violence. These issues are of particular importance especially in vie w of recent events at higher education institutions both locally and natio nally. With our themes #I am Affected\, #I Can Relate\, #I am a Survivor\, we aim to uncover ALL the different layers and break the silence around g ender based violence\, femicide and the pervasive rape culture in our comm unities etc\, as well as stigmatizing survivors of these heinous acts.\n\n Studies show an undeniable correlation between gender- based violence and HIV/AIDS\, which warrants our immediate intervention. The DUT Silent Prote st provides a platform to engage higher education students from the Durban Metro\, but also the broader community on the continued stigma and silenc e around gender based violence. Since our advocacy is in the context of HI V/AIDS\, we further advocate for improved access to Post-exposure Prophyla xis (PEP) and Pre-exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP).\n\nPlease kindly note that this is a whole day event which will begin with a short morning session in clusive or play and dialogue\, followed by the protest march from Ritson c ampus into Steve Biko Road\, pass Winterton Residence into ML Sultan campu s and back to Ritson campus where a die-in will take place.\n\nThe details of the event are as follows:\n\n Date: \;  \;  \;  \; &nb sp\;  \;  \;21 August 2019\n\n Time: \;  \;  \;  \ ;  \;  \; 09h00 – 15h00\n\n Venue: \;  \;  \;  \ ;  \;Durban University of Technology-Marque at Ritson Campus\n\n \ ;To sign up follow this link: https://www.dut.ac.za/silent-protest-sign-up -form/\n\n \;For more details about the event kindly contact the DUT-H IV and AIDS Centre\, on 031 373 2260/2287/2440 or email: HivandAids@dut.ac .za or thobilez@dut.ac.za or \;siphesihlen1@dut.ac.za ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08 /SilentP.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:444@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190821T100000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190821T100000 DTSTAMP:20190815T101351Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/town-hall-invitation-ritson-campus/ SUMMARY:Town Hall Invitation: Ritson Campus DESCRIPTION:Kindly click on \;this \;link \;to RSVP \;for t he event.\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08 /TownHall.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:440@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190821T110000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190821T123000 DTSTAMP:20190813T074139Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/fohs-public-lecture-invitation/ SUMMARY:FOHS Public Lecture Invitation DESCRIPTION:FOHS Public Lecture Invitation\, click for full view : \;At tachment ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08 /Plecture.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:447@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190822T100000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190822T100000 DTSTAMP:20190815T101340Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/town-hall-invitation-ritson-campus-2/ SUMMARY:Town Hall Invitation: Ritson Campus DESCRIPTION:Kindly click on \;this \;link \;to RSVP \;for t he event.\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08 /TownHall.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:449@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190823T120000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190823T140000 DTSTAMP:20190816T084311Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/deans-lecture-decolonising-language-polic ies-in-higher-education/ SUMMARY:Dean's Lecture Decolonising Language Policies in Higher Education DESCRIPTION: ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.dut.ac.za/wp-content/uploads/2019/08 /Dean.jpg CATEGORIES:General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:433@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190823T120000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190823T153000 DTSTAMP:20190801T092846Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/gender-forum-womens-month-lunch-hour-cele bration/ SUMMARY:Gender Forum Womens Month Lunch Hour Celebration DESCRIPTION: CATEGORIES:Gender Forum,General END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:434@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190824T103000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190824T160000 DTSTAMP:20190801T093304Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/community-outreach-appreciative-day/ SUMMARY:Community outreach appreciative day DESCRIPTION:Student housing &\; res life community outreach appreciative day\n\nMore information can be found in the poster below.\n END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:442@dut.ac.za DTSTART;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190826T100000 DTEND;TZID=Africa/Johannesburg:20190826T100000 DTSTAMP:20190815T101328Z URL:https://www.dut.ac.za/events/town-hall-invitation/ SUMMARY:Town Hall Invitation: Riverside Campus (PMB) DESCRIPTION:Kindly click on \;this \;link \;to RSVP \;for t he event.

Entrance Gate 1 & \; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nResearch Abstract:\nIn recent years\, at a tim e when there has been much in the South African media about ‘corruption ’ and ‘captured states’\, urban sociologists and political scientist s have started researching various forms of ‘Tammany Hall’ politics se en across the country. They draw on a rich urban studies literature that s tudies the political machines run by city halls. What might a historian ad d to these debates? Drawing on a case study of Durban/Ethekweni\, in this paper I tentatively suggest how the political and business elites in offic e in South Africa today have their origins in the urban revolts of the 198 0s/90s. Second\, I speculate that in the 2000s Ethekweni Metropolitan Muni cipality provided a paradigmatic example of an effective city hall machine \, distributing housing and infrastructure to an ANC voting public whilst also providing lucrative contracts to well connected insiders. Thirdly\, I point towards the fractures in this form of redistributive politics\, whi ch have particularly been seen in the 2010s.\n\nBio:\nDr Tim Gibbs is a le cturer in African History at University College London.

The Women's Poetry Writing Workshop DESCRIPTION:Kind reminder to attend the final UFC Seminar for 2019 - :The W omen's Poetry Writing Workshop”: An Intersectional Approach to Study Urb an Mobility\, by Dr Dudu S Ndlovu hosted by DUT’s Urban Futures Centre.\ n\nPRESENTER: Dr Dudu S Ndlovu\n\nDATE: Thursday 28th November 2019​\n\n TIME: 12-1:30pm\n\nVENUE: Steve Biko Campus - DUT\, UFC offices\, S2 Block \, Level 4\, Room DP4.01B (UFC Common Room). Entrance Gate 1 &\; 2. 79 Steve Biko Road\n\nMigration research has provided rich insights into mobi lity and the negotiation of everyday urban life notwithstanding it categor ising the urban population into sub-groups such as ‘migrant’ and ‘no n-migrant’ a limitation that restricts our capacity to see mobility on a broader continuum. This has also tended to amplify the voices of male mig rants at the expense of hearing and understanding female voices. While som e of this research has been translated into policy\, it has rarely been us ed to create dialogue with participants and their fellow city-zens. To mov e beyond these limitations I used poetry writing workshops with women to e xplore urban mobility and inclusivity in Johannesburg. In this seminar I r eflect on the “women’s poetry writing workshop” method\, the opportu nity it presents to centre the women’s voices and provide space for dial ogue.\n\nBiography\n\nDr Dudu S. Ndlovu is a postdoctoral fellow at the Un iversity of the Witwatersrand\, she holds a Newton Advanced Fellowship at the University of Edinburgh\, Centre for African Studies (CAS) (2018-2020) . Her research interests include: exploring arts-based research methods as a form of decolonising knowledge production\; interrogating intersectiona lity through narrative work\; and analysing the gendered politics of memor y. She completed her PhD at the University of the Witwatersrand in 2017 fo cusing on Zimbabwean migrants’ use of art (poetry\, music\, drama\, film ) to navigate precarious lives\; speak about violence – including the Gu kurahundi in Zimbabwe and xenophobia in South Africa\, and memorialise tho se events.
