Great article in @Bloomberg showing how cities can learn from each other to improve services. @AlbertIBP says: “If you take a service-centric approach, you can find out what you need transparency on." #Asivikelane #openbudgets

We are gearing up for massive community submissions on the upcoming 2023/24 municipal budgets. We are training our #Asivikelane partners to engage in the budget participation process. We will be asking for increased budgets for informal settlement services.

#WasteCollection is a huge challenge in Kameeldrift!
@tshwane_mayor here's one more item for your list of commitments to building a Tshwane that delivers services to all its residents. #Asivikelane
2 Mar 2023
There has been no waste collection in Kameeldrift informal settlement for 6 months! This is not safe or healthy for communities. #WasteCollectionNow

🚨Residents in Knysna & Stellenbosch informal settlements remain with no access to water, #sanitation / refuse removal & these services aren't fixed when they break. #Asivikelane asks municipalities to set aside enough money in their #budgets for repairs & maintenance of services

Residents across #SouthAfrica are joining #Asivikelane to improve basic service delivery in their communities. We work with residents and local government to identify hot-spots where taps, toilets and refuse removal is needed.

EM @ThapeloAmad MMC & @CdeDada as you review the IDP & working on priorities and allocating resources of @CityofJoburgZA, think of this request from #Asivikelane
10 Feb 2023
Residents in @CityofJoburgZA, Lusaka B informal settlement don't have a toilet and are forced to use a drain as a toilet. The community requests toilets to relieve themselves in a dignified manner. Please help by sharing this post! @ThapeloAmad @GDCoGTA @GautengProvince
