(hereafter referred to as AEC or the campaign), which resists
the evictions of poor residents who are unable to meet their
housing or service payments. Until due legal procedures and
court hearings can take place, the AEC moves evicted families
back into their homes and reconnects their water services
(Western Cape Anti-eviction Campaign 2002). This campaign
approach aims to defend the constitutional right of all South
African citizens to access adequate housing and sufficient food
and water (see articles 26 and 27 of the 1996 constitution of the
Republic of South Africa).
