CONCLUSION
After analyzing the data collected
and considering the various
aspects of the informal sector in
Thohoyandou, it is reasonable to
accept the hypothesis. The
evidence gathered supports the
initial proposition that the
informal sector in Thohoyandou
faces significant challenges,
including lack of formal
recognition, economic
marginalization, limited
infrastructure, and policy
constraints. The effects of these
challenges are evident in the
community, with impacts ranging
from poverty and unemployment
to social exclusion and
environmental degradation.
Additionally, the
recommendations proposed to
address these challenges align
with the hypothesis, indicating
that concerted efforts are needed
to support the growth and
development of the informal
sector in Thohoyandou. Therefore,
accepting the hypothesis
acknowledges the complexity of
the issue and the need for targeted
interventions to promote inclusive
economic development and
improve livelihoods in the region.
