Guideline

Africa

Relocations have the potential to severely disrupt people’s lives and negatively impact their livelihoods, community relations, and sense of security. To make sure this doesn’t happen, the relocation process should be carefully planned, well-run, and participatory. The Socio-Economic Rights Institute of South Africa (SERI) developed this set of guidelines to assist those involved in the relocation process in navigating the complexities involved in planning for and carrying out a relocation. The guidelines present an approach to relocations based on SERI’s experience in planning and managing relocations to alternative housing and draw on international and local experience. The guidelines offer practical guidance on how to ensure that relocations are carried out in a way that respects the constitutional rights of the people being relocated.
