Makuleke land claim settled; about 25,000 hectares of Kruger restored in title

node

A settlement agreement in 1998, confirmed by a Land Claims Court ruling in 1999, restored roughly 25,000 hectares of northern Kruger to the Makuleke community on condition that the land remain under conservation use and within the park, with the community holding commercial and tourism rights and co-management responsibilities. The community did not regain the right to resettle the land.

A node is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.

  35. Evidence
  36. The Makuleke were removed from the Pafuri area in 1969 and their land incorporated into Kruger National Park; a 1998 settlement restored roughly 25,000 hectares in title on condition of continued conservation use, with commercial rights to the community. South African protected areas were expanded through forced removals that post-1994 restitution law reopened as legal questions.
