Abstract | This GCRO Occasional Paper presents the multiple meanings, uses and key debates associated with the terms ‘township’ and ‘township economies’ in the Gauteng context. Based on analysis of documents, a limited number of interviews with government officials and workshops on township economic development in Gauteng, the paper discusses the implications these different meanings and debates have for framing government-led township economic development strategies in post-apartheid Gauteng. |
