Popis: This proposal outlines a request for project funding for the EWB UCT's low cost fencing project. The aim was to design and build a low cost fence for a playground at a pre-school in a Cape Town community based in a low income area. Facing the challenges of material theft in the area one of the objectives was to provide an alternative to the wood fencing that is currently being used such that this new design does not lure thieves. Moreover, the aim is to provide a safe and reliable design for fencing the playground that is durable and comes at a low cost. Plastic netting (supported with concrete poles) was suggested as potential replacement for the traditional wooden fence.
