That&#8217;s almost five times less (nationwide) than in Cape Town alone.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Streetscapes, a project we have been supporting for over 6 months<\/strong>, aims to support the social reintegration of 180 homeless people from Cape Town and reduce social\/racial inequalities.<\/p>\n\n<p>They have implemented a <strong>holistic approach<\/strong> to help these vulnerable individuals. Their program includes <strong>access to housing, psychological support, a detoxification program and access to employment<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>The initiative is also partly funded by the City of Cape Town and involves the support of 13 NGOs providing specific services to the homeless. We are delighted with the initial results of this ambitious project, which plays a crucial role in supporting homeless people.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Streetscapes already supports nearly one hundred beneficiaries<\/strong> and is continuing its commitment to the development of micro-enterprises. These businesses aim both at increasing organization revenue while providing job opportunities for beneficiaries.<\/p>\n\n<p><em>*Department of Social Development South Africa<br\/>*According to Swiss Assistance for the Homeless<\/em><\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-khulisa-social-solutions wp-block-embed-khulisa-social-solutions\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"IRlDDNjNih\"><a href=\"https:\/\/khulisa.org.za\/streetscapes\/\">STREETSCAPES<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;STREETSCAPES&#8221; &#8212; Khulisa Social Solutions\" src=\"https:\/\/khulisa.org.za\/streetscapes\/embed\/#?secret=8BbOAMwzvf#?secret=IRlDDNjNih\" data-secret=\"IRlDDNjNih\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc-585x878.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3437\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/www.fondationnext.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/sc2-263x175.jpg 263w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to a study conducted by the DSD*, Cape Town&#8217;s agglomeration (South Africa) had 14,347 homeless people in 2020.
