Presenters :

Dr Cily Tabane

The purpose of the seminar is to learn some lessons from a study conducted in the Eastern Cape, Cacadu District about the stakeholder perceptions’ of the victim empowerment initiatives at a local level.

 

The aim of the research study was to determine the stakeholder perceptions’ of VEP services in order to make recommendations on critical success factors for victim empowerment initiatives at a local level. An exploratory descriptive study was conducted among victim empowerment service providers in the four selected areas of Cacadu District. The findings implied that stakeholders should maintain referrals by other organisations and word of mouth should be the key marketing strategy for the programme.  

The study also found that perceived success factors mainly include provision of adequate resources and community involvement.
