dc.description.abstractThe CWP functions like an oasis in a sea of crime, grime and violence. It is seen to create a stabilizing presence in promoting leadership structures and social capital, and as well, of providing ‘livelihood support’ to community members. The CWP successfully introduced ‘Safe Manenberg’ campaigns such as a safety patrol on school premises to ensure that learners get to and from school safely. However, much gang-related violence continues. An integrated approach to development would require further investment in the CWP in order to strengthen the process of building social cohesion and social justice.en
