Housing activism through research
University of Cape Town (UCT) master’s in environmental and geographical science student Kezia Fortuin has in her research responded to a crisis which often comes to a head in the City of Cape Town: homelessness. Kezia said the occupation of buildings such as Cissie Gool House comes as a result of the housing crisis – and her focus lies in understanding the phenomenon. On Monday, 2 September, she will walk across the stage in the Sarah Baartman Hall to receive her certificate.
