This literature paper examines the dynamics of the „Transformation of South Africa's Townships: TBL Initiatives and the Future of Social Housing.” Rooted in the historical echoes of apartheid, the examination extends to post-apartheid social housing activities, notably the Reconstruction Development Programme (RDP) initiated in 2004. At its core lies the incorporation of Triple Bottom Line (TBL) principles, emphasizing environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The study's objectives encompass evaluating TBL integration, measuring its impact on resident well-being, and dissecting associated challenges. Hypotheses suggest positive outcomes on resident quality of life, long-term sustainability, and resilience with TBL incorporation. The review traverses historical complexities, the transformative role of TBL, and a comparative analysis of global social housing initiatives, drawing insights from Singapore, Sweden, Brazil, and localized projects. Theoretical frameworks guiding TBL in social housing, coupled with practical case studies, shed light on the tangible application of these principles. In conclusion, the synthesis advocates for evidence-based policies, urging the holistic development of thriving, resilient communities in South African townships.
