Abstract
South Africa's National Development Plan (NDP) is a detailed blueprint for how the country can eliminate poverty and reduce inequality by the year 2030. The NDP has various objectives, such as reducing unemployment by six per cent by creating more than five million jobs through attacking issues such as education. Indeed, the South African Government has made significant progress in improving living standards since 1994 by providing housing, basic services, health care, and land reform. The lives of millions of South Africans have been greatly improved. But much remains to be done. South Africa still has a divided economy with high levels of inequality.-
