Photo 16: De Doorns, where the displacements took place [by Courtney Rosebrooks]
Case Study One:
De Doorns Displaced
De Doorns in the Western Cape is more than 3,000 km from Harare, and there are many South
African towns en route to this comparatively remote area. The authors were interested in
establishing who from Zimbabwe had come to be in De Doorns, considering its distance from
home. In particular, we were concerned as to what is happening now, four months later, to
those who suffered these attacks and losses, and to know what is going to happen to them in
the future.
