Theory of Change as a monitoring and evaluation tool aimed at achieving sustainable human settlements

This journal article discusses the African Union's 2063 vision, aiming for a prosperous Africa driven by inclusive growth and sustainable development, with modernised urban infrastructure as cultural and economic hubs. It emphasises cities' need to provide basic services like shelter, water, sanitation, energy, public transport, and ICT, aligning with Sustainable Development Goal 11 to make cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable by 2030. Significant policy and statutory developments in housing in South Africa since 1994 reflect the complex housing landscape. The National Development Plan (2012) and initiatives like Breaking New Ground (2004) highlight efforts to ensure constitutional housing rights, restructure urban areas, improve living conditions for poor households, and develop a functional and equitable residential property market.
