2020 – Public Participation Process on the Environmental Impact Assessment for the Musina-Makhado Special Economic Zone (SEZ)
Discussing the flawed public participation process with communities in the Limpopo valley
Meshack Mbangula Macua community activist
The Mudimele Community. One of the closest communities to the SEZ and the least informed of what it’s environmental impact will be.
Hazel Shirinda, environmental scientist, and Meshack Mbungula, communit activist, discussing the proposed removal of 100 000 trees from the SEZ site. The prevailing terrain and root structure of the trees, especially baobabs, make this suggestion in the EIA completely absurd.
Water scarcity is a fact of life in Limpopo valley. The SEZ requires millions of kilolitres to function, according the EIA. Where it will come from is the question.
