Practice Guide 5: Economic Development Policy Frameworks in SA
This document provides a summary of the National Framework for Economic Development (2006-2011), followed by a summary of the position on LED taken by the South African Local Government Association (SALGA). Thereafter, consideration is given to some of the central pillars of economic policy in South Africa, and their relevance to LED or more broadly Economic Development. It must be stressed that regional economic development is not LED. But understood as an approach to economic development, many of the concerns, policy frameworks and approaches used in LED can be applied.
