MEGATRENDS: TOURISM STAYS WORLDS BIGGEST & FASTEST GROWING INDUSTRY
POSITION PAPEREkurhuleni 2055 Growth and Development Strategy
24
MEGATRENDS: AFRICA RISES
The African continent will grow by at least a billion people and this will involve both the creation of massive new markets for the GCR as well as ever more competition from better located and more efficient production complexes
SA will compete with other African countries, especially in West Africa
POSITION PAPEREkurhuleni 2055 Growth and Development Strategy
25
MEGATRENDS: AFRICA RISES
The future of the Gauteng City Region will be strongly influenced by its capacity to attract African skills, trade and tourism and to export its skills and knowledge.
POSITION PAPEREkurhuleni 2055 Growth and Development Strategy
26
CONTEXT DRIVER: GAUTENG CITY REGION
The Gauteng City Region is expected to double in size from some 12 million to 25 million people by 2055
Ekurhuleni will either capture the skills, energy and ideas of an emerging skilled and globally connected middle class
Or be a choice of least resistance for a growing under class who seek any means of shelter and survival close to the urban core
POSITION PAPEREkurhuleni 2055 Growth and Development Strategy
27
CONTEXT DRIVER: GAUTENG CITY REGION
Climate change impacts and falling rural employment may accelerate the flow of unskilled migrants from South Africa and other African countries, placing additional pressure on Ekurhuleni’s capacity to cope with settlement demands
Within the GCR the spatial patterns of investment and opportunity will shift as the land market shifts and the space economy links up new centres of production
