About Us

PLAAS is an independent Policy Research Institute within the Faculty for Economic and Management Sciences at the University of the Western Cape.

We do research, policy engagement, teaching and training about chronic poverty, economic marginalisation and structural inequality in Southern Africa.

Our Focus

Our research concentrates on the role of land, agriculture, and natural resources in the livelihoods of marginalised and vulnerable people.
