dala’s Livelihood Initiative explores informal livelihoods and the entrepreneurial networks that exist in an increasingly globalised world. This initiative emphasises modes and models of social, spatial and economic innovation in the context of the marginalising tendencies of neoliberal capitalism. Two of the more prominent projects within this initiative have been: the award winning spaza-de-move-on (Design Indaba South Award); and the ongoing support provided by dala in the struggle to save the Early Morning Market in Durban.
