the following three broad functions:
(I) Regulatory
(2)
(II) Coordination
(2)
(III) Development
(2)

QUESTION 2
The Stepmore Settlement Case study from South Africa provides an excellent opportunity to
understand the complexity of rural development. Similarly, it formed the basis for how rural
development complexity could be solved, including Namibia. The problem has two sides: (1)
those who wish to remain in the settlement and (2) those who would like to leave the
settlement. Based on this background, answer the following questions:
(a) Discuss the strategies employed in Stepmore Settlement geared toward the residents
who wished to remain in the settlements.
(8)
(b) In your own opinion, how could the government help those who wish to leave the
settlement, particularly the young people? Suggest at least five bullet points.
(10)
(c) Another approach introduced was establishing a trade centre at Stepmore to unlock the
settlement's potential. Discuss how the trade centre will operate as a focal point for the
development & creation of opportunities for the surrounding rural households.
(8)
[26]
QUESTION 2
(a) During community engagement, it is essential to be guided by guiding principles.
Briefly describe these principles.
(5)
(b) Regional and Constituency Offices are constrained by several factors when coordinating
line ministries to reflect local priorities for Rural Development. Discuss four of
these factors.

QUESTION 3
An Integrated Regional Land Use Plan (IRLUP)is an example of spatial planning that deals with
several Land Use aspects. IRLUPsare significant in regional planning and development. The
Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform is in the process of finalising an IRLUPfor
Region Z. Against the above, answer the following questions:
(a) Briefly describe the aims of conducting constituency workshops during the preparation
of the Integrated Regional Land Use Plan (IRLUP).
(6)
(b) The land use proposals of the IRLUPare assessed by the Strategic Environmental
Assessment {SEA)using three main criteria. Discussthese criteria.
(6)
(d) The Fortaleza River in a particular region has been born of contention between several
land uses due to competing activities, notably tourism, grazing, irrigation, and community
water absorption. The indigenous communities primarily depend on this river for
livelihood. Due to competing land use activities, this needs urgent practical and long-term
solutions, which must also benefit every competing land use activity. How will you
remedy this situation from a spatial planning perspective? In addition, support your
discussion with a self-explanatory diagram. (note 10 marks for a self-explanatory
diagram).

QUESTION 3
An Integrated Regional Land Use Plan (IRLUP)is an example of spatial planning that deals with
several Land Use aspects. IRLUPs are significant in regional planning and development. The
Ministry of Agriculture, Water and Land Reform is in the process of finalising an IRLUP for
Region Z. Against the above, answer the following questions:
(a) During the constituency workshop, the community identified several competing land
uses, notably, "Settlement versus Craping& livestock". Using bullets, propose at least
four (4) possible solutions to these competing land uses.
(4)
(b) The Fortaleza River in a particular region has been born of contention between several
land uses due to competing activities, notably tourism, fishing, grazing, irrigation, and
community water absorption. The indigenous communities primarily depend on this
river for livelihood. Due to competing land use activities, this needs urgent practical and
long-term solutions, which must also benefit every competing land use activity. How
will you remedy this situation from a spatial planning perspective? In addition, support
your discussion with a self-explanatory diagram. (note 15 marksfor a self-explanatory
