Internally Displaced Persons and the Right to . ' Adequate Housing: An Appraisal of Operation Murambatsvina in Zimbabwe
(University of Fort Hare, 2008-04-22) Zivanai, Rodgers
This dissertation examines the situation of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in terms of international law, with the right to adequate housing as the
main concern. The issue of internal displacement is very topical at present, as there are over 25 million IDPs in the world today and the number is not decreasing, quite on the contrary. First and foremost, the definition of IDPs is under examination. I DPs and refugees seem to be two fairly similar categories of persons who need protection; therefore the issue of eventual similarities and differences between these two groups will be studied
The Impact of a Professional Development Programme on Managing Classroom Practice
(University of Fort Hare, 2005-05-01) Sokutu, Namhla Prudence
In South Africa vast efforts and considerable resources continue to be spent on providing in service training for teachers to stimulate professional development and improve classroom practice. The impact of these professional development programmes on long term practice is uncertain. But there seems to be evidence that programmes based on a growth or constructivist model are more effective.

From the case law analysed and critiqued, possible thematic lessons for SADC in transition are extracted.
IPSec Traffic Overhead Analysis in Dual Stack 1Pv4/1Pv6 Transition Mechanisms
(University of Fort Hare, 2005-12) Mujinga, Mathias
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the next generation of Internet Protocol proposed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to supplant the current Internet Protocol version 4 (/Pv4). Lack of security below the application layer in IPv4 is one of the reasons why there is a need for a new Internet Protocol. IPv6 has built-in support for the Internet Protocol Security protocol (IPSec). IPSec is an Internet standard that is designed to provide data confidentiality, integrity and the authentication through the use of the Authentication Header (AH) and Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) protocols. This paper reports work done in evaluating the implications of the compulsory use of IPSec on the traffic performance of the dual-stack IPv4/IPv6 computer network, as this adds additional headers on the packets.
An Investigation into the causes of Learner dropouts in two rural secondary schools Fort Beaufort District, Eastern Cape Province: A case study
(University of Fort Hare, 2007-11) Mgwangqa, Vuyiswa Evelyn
Since the attainment of independence in South Africa after the collapse of apartheid, government has undertaken significant changes in the educational context. The main goal in the National Curriculum Statement required learners to be reflective thinkers, independent, creative and resourceful; however, in contrast many learners in rural secondary schools are continuing to drop out of schools not completing Grade 12. The purpose of this study is to investigate the causes of learner dropout in rural secondary schools. My objective is to use these findings to determine mechanisms and accountability that should be accepted by schools and the department education to eliminate this problem.
