Accelerating justice expanding prevention and strengthening accountability: the need for G20 action to end gender-based violence and femicide (GBVF)
No full textHSRC Policy Brief, OctoberGender-based violence and femicide (GBVF) are among the most widespread human rights violations, devastating lives across every country, culture, and class (UNICEF, n.d.). In 2023, it was estimated that approximately 51,000 women were killed by an intimate partner or a family member globally (United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime & United Nations Women, 2024). Despite years of global commitments and progress, millions still live in fear – denied justice, safety, and dignity. GBVF is not only a personal tragedy; it also weakens the social fabric, impedes progress, and drains up to 3.7% of GDP in some countries (Ouedraogo & Stenzel, 2021). It is a collective crisis warranting urgent, united action. In recent times, regressive policies and a weakening global commitment to human rights have reinforced patriarchal power, inequality and unhealthy masculinities – while eroding protections for vulnerable groups. The escalation of all forms of GBVF reflects deeply interconnected systems of discrimination and oppression (CIVICUS, 2025; UNHCR n.d.). Addressing GBVF requires integrated and intersectional solutions rooted in women’s reproductive and mental health, justice, expanded prevention, and accountability. This policy brief calls for bold policy shifts and systemic, transformative change to support national, regional and international advocacy efforts aimed at ensuring the protection and safeguarding of women and girls against GBVF.N/
Leveraging South Africa’s renewable energy initiative to revitalise Merafong City’s distressed mining township economies
No full textHSRC Policy Brief, AprilThis oversight engenders and promotes pro-market, favouring well-established private sector businesses to submit tenders as Independent Power Producers (IPPs). Consequently, it fails to create an enabling environment for local government to leverage South Africa’s REI4P as an LED initiative to revitalize distressed mining township economies, such as those in Merafong City. This policy brief outlines the potential and strategies for leveraging the REI4P to revitalize distressed mining township economies, utilizing township-based SMMEs as rooftop solar photovoltaic SSEEGs.N/
Navigating young fatherhood in contemporary South Africa: does the provider status still matter?
No full textHistorically, fathers were often expected to be the primary providers of their families; however, the role of men has evolved substantially. Increasingly, men are changing and so are their responsibilities. The aim of this study is to explore the role that young fathers play in contemporary families and the challenges they are exposed to. This study focuses on 20 young men living in Durban, South Africa. The young men suggested that being able to provide for their children was still an important part of their role. However, being unable to maintain this was not only a financial struggle but also one that affected them emotionally. The young men demonstrated their renewed commitment of wanting to do and be better, even in the absence of finances. More family-centred support should be implemented in communities, especially in lower-income contexts

South African public relationship with science: 2022 survey results
No full textThe first South African Public Relationship with Science (SAPRS) Survey, which is also the first of its kind, marks a turning point in the history of our science engagement programme. The report’s release coincides with the 30th anniversary of democracy in our nation, and the 2022 SAPRS takes us back to the early days, when the programme to raise public awareness of science started under the auspices of the 1996 White Paper on Science and Technology.
Drivers of COVID-19 infections: perspectives of managers in the Gauteng Department of Health, South Africa
No full textThis study investigated the perceptions and experiences of Gauteng Department of Health (GDoH) senior managers about factors that contributed to the high incidence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Gauteng, the hardest hit province in South Africa. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted using online in-depth interviews with senior managers in Gauteng. Audio recordings were transcribed verbatim, coded and thematically analyzed in NVivo 10. Data saturation was reached at 13 participants (n = 13). Findings were reported in line with the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research (COREQ). Results: Two main themes emerged from the analysis. Theme I: Perceptions of the burden of COVID-19 in Gauteng. Theme II: Key health and behavioral factors, including poor protocol adherence, exacerbated the spread of COVID-19. Economic challenges such as limited employment prospects and informal settlements, sociocultural enablers like vaccine hesitancy, social media misinformation, limited vaccine and treatment options, and environmental factors such as the OR Tambo International Airport contributed to high population density and heightened the infections and transmission of COVID-19. Governance issues, including corruption in personal protective equipment procurement and embezzlement of COVID-19 funds, undermined the GDoH response. Understanding perceptions of factors that influence disease transmission is crucial for effectively managing infectious diseases like COVID-19 and future outbreaks. Addressing infrastructure gaps in underserved communities and strengthening government regulations could help to reduce congestion in Gauteng, ultimately reducing the spread of contagious diseases. Contribution: The study presents a model for investigating and addressing the human factors that drive the transmission of infectious diseases.
Pathways to achieving South Africa’s R&D intensity target. Analytical brief no. 03/2025
No full textThis brief examines different pathways to achieve South Africa’s R&D intensity target. It presents an optimistic outlook where research and experimental development (R&D) activity in the business sector is stimulated after significant government support and funding, and a pessimistic outlook where this fails to materialise, leading to continued government dominance in R&D performance while business sector investment declines.N/
Effect of lambing season, sex, parity, and litter size on growth performance in lambs: a review
No full textPoor pre-weaning and post-weaning mortality in lambs is common in communal sheep productions due to the use of extensive management practices. Communal sheep producers often lack the resources to address poor performance issues associated with extensive production systems. Non-genetic factors present a potential tool for communal farmers to identify animals prone to poor performance in advance. By using these factors as indicators, farmers can prioritize limited feed additives for lambs at higher risk of poor performance. Key non-genetic factors such as lambing season, sex, parity, and litter size can help identify lamb groups prone to mortality. However, these factors have contrasting effects on pre-weaning and post-weaning lamb performance. Therefore, there is a need to summarize the individual effects of non-genetic factors on lamb performance for the identification of their current trends. Thus, the objective of this review was to assess the effect of lambing season, sex, parity, and litter size mainly on birthweight (0 d BW), weaning weight (90 d BW), and post-weaning weight (180 d BW), as well as preweaning (0-90 d BW) and post-weaning (90-180 d BW) average daily gains (ADGs) in lambs.
Akibat Hukum Harta Hibah Terhadap Pembatalan Akta Hibah yang Dibuat PPAT
Get PDFThis writing aims to determine the principle of the cancellation of the grant deed based on Article 1688 of the Civil Code and the legal consequences of the grant property for which the cancellation of the grant is requested. The principle of canceling the grant deed is based on Article 1688 of the Civil Code, that is, if the grantee's requirements are not met by the grantee, the grantor can request the return of the gifted goods. If the recipient of the grant is proven to be involved in a crime or murder against the grantor himself. If the grantor falls into poverty and the recipient is reluctant to provide a living to the grantor, the grant can be returned to the grantor. The occurrence of a grant cancellation can cause legal consequences for the grant goods through a decision to cancel the grant from the Court by making the ownership rights to the grant property return to the grantor. Thus, all of the grant assets become the property of the grantor. If the grant item has been certified on behalf of the grant recipient, the certificate is not valid
