Water Pond at Informal Settlement in South Africa
Masakhane informal settlement, just outside eMalahleni (Witbank), with Duvha coal power station in the background. Many members of this community do not have access to electricity, despite living in the shadows of a coal power station. The neighbouring coal
mine delivers coal once a week, and this coal is collected in wheelbarrows for household needs.
