Research

Research is a key component of the eMzantsi project, with monitoring and evaluation being managed in partnership with iNCUDISA, the Intercultural and Diversity Studies unit of Southern Africa, at UCT since 2005.

Both MD Sam Pearce and research coordinator Haley McEwen, have Masters in Diversity Studies from iNCUDISA, and are local south peninsula residents. Under the auspices of Associate Professor Melissa Steyn, Haley oversees both quantitative and qualitative research on various aspects of the project, as well as carrying out regular diversity training with eMzantsi staff and facilitating teams.

Harlequin Foundation scholarship recipients Ruvimbo Gwatirisa and Emma Arogundade are iNCUDISA Masters students who are currently engaged in monitoring and evaluating the intercultural music project and the primary schools twinning programme respectively.
