Relevance of the Study


This study will contribute to the
existing literature on the analysis of
the determinants of informal
settlements.
Given the prevalent illegal activities
in the area, this study will serve as a
basis for recommendations for the
Government.

Research Questions
How are the social, economic and
political conditions contribute to the
prevalence of informal settlements in the
Ipo Watershed?
How does the issue of ancestral domain
apply as a determinant on the presence of
ISFs?
How do the economic condition of the ISFs
affect their livelihood decisions?
How does the issue of representation
determine the activities of the ISFs?
