Abstract
ABSTRACT This study investigates the socio-economic impact of poverty on residents of Windhoek’s informal settlements: Havana, Ombili, and Single Quarters. Using a qualitative research design, data were collected through semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions with 72 participants. Key themes include scarcity of resources, health impacts, educational challenges, employment barriers, and coping mechanisms. Findings highlight severe deprivation due to inadequate sanitation, limited healthcare, and insufficient education, with employment challenges entrenched by reliance on the informal sector. Policy recommendations include enhancing infrastructure, healthcare, education, job creation, and community-based initiatives to alleviate poverty and improve quality of life in Windhoek.
