Abstract: This master thesis examines the local governance and impact of local programmes, their implementation and their suitability to promote sustainable diets in the rural area of Vaalharts, South Africa. Thirteen programmes were identified and three were chosen for further in-depth investigation: A governmental nutrition education programme, a governmental agricultural support programme, and local soup kitchens as non-governmental actors. For the qualitative research approach within the larger project ‘Sustainability of diets in rural South Africa’ (Claasen et al., 2015) semi-structured interviews were conducted with actors and beneficiaries of the respective programmes. Content analysis was employed using Atlas.ti. The sustainable diets framework by Claasen et al. was then applied on the case study to firstly identify dimensions of sustainable diets that are already being addressed by existing programmes, and secondly to find out which dimensions need more consideration to achieve sustainable diets in Vaalharts. Findings indicate that policy based governmental programmes have only limited impact if they lack an integrated approach. For soup kitchen many synergy effects remain untapped that could be utilised. More holistic and inter-sectorial approaches, integrating different sectors and disciplines, are necessary to address human, cultural, environmental, economic as well as health and nutrition aspects to establish sustainable diets in rural South Africa.
