South Africa: Results of the first national farm evictions survey

Research by Nkuzi Development Association and Social Surveys indicates that farm evictions continue unabated in the post-apartheid era. The number of people displaced from farms between 1994 and the end of 2004 was 1.8 million and another 942 000 people were evicted in the same period. Only 1% of evictions went through a court process.
