Listening to experience: the narratives of a Zimbabwean migrant living and working in Cape Town

This study explored the experiences of Tendai, a 50 year old migrant from Zimbabwe currently living and working in Cape Town. The approach adopted was that of narrative inquiry, an approach to research that advocates open and informal interviewing and brings theory into conversation with stories as opposed to using it as a kind of structuring framework. The field work for this study was carried out over a period of 4 moths. Interviews were held in Tendai's home in Khayelitsha and were recorded and transcribed, along with detailed field notes.
