Very good Interview and insightful from Leslie
Well answered Prof Zweli. Thank you for a very insightful session. Well done on the work that you are doing.
Excellent webinar and incredibly well facilitated Carla. Look forward to hearing more from the Enpower team and Future Cities Africa channel on the promise of virtual wheeling in South Africa.
Excellent!!!!
Thanks for the video presentation!
Congratulations to the Western Cape for just doing what they are supposed to do. Shame on all those other municipalities outside the Western Cape who are focused more on stealing money than doing the basics. There is no excuse for their poor performance, it's not rocket science.
Well said Dr Chishimba, Infrastructure impedes greatly on possible investments.
Thanks for sharing all this information. Really informative to see how you are practically implementing wheeling/electricity trading model.
This is a very interesting & relevant conversation. I for one, fully believe in the value of Digital Twins & Calayde's work in the field excites me. I could miss understand Calayde's statement 4:38 "where people go isn't really a private issue anymore because we can see that and Google tracks it anyway". But if I just go by these words, I can't agree with an assumption that "because one party does something / this is happening, that it's obviously a green light for everyone to simply do the same". There are definitely more to consider here. There are many examples where large corporations (Facebook, Twitter, Huawei) infringements of ie. people's privacy & free speech is challenges and found to be unjust. I understand the need for data. It just sounds a bit dangerous & "wild west" to assume tracking people's movement without their consent or knowledge is justified on that basis. How do you think certain data can still become open & public, but by design, can be done in a more responsible & respectful way where participants have an opportunity to choose if / how their data is used?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ She’s really smart
Proud of you Dr. Hanson Chishimba.
Very insightful discussion Doctor Hanson Chishimba
Well articulated feedback on issues surrounding local authorities and a call for community satisfaction on service provision.
In addition to professionalisation, there needs to be a strong code of conduct with consequence management in the local government sector. Local government is the engine of each community. A weak local government sector renders poor environment susceptible to external influences such as corruption etc. "If you have weak systems, it opens the door for external infiltration and influence.” LG Mpedi I commend in your bold steps in strengthening the local government sector and may success be your reward
The major question is how do we professionalise the leadership from the Ministers of COGTA, SALGA and Local Govrernmnt and Executive Mnanagemnt to ensure a top down approach. How many of the Ministers in the aforementioned positions have worked in Local Goverment.
Good question Terence, that one will take some time because many of those deployed politically do not care about being professional. The best approach to solve that is to build strong communities so that those who ascend to these positions are driven by eager to serve
Looking forward to the next webinar. 👍🏿👍🏿
Thank you, we'll be opening the registration soon.
Thanks a lot for this! This content needs 'promosm'.

Cllr Archie Klaas of Overberg District Municipality in Western Cape. Truly enjoyed the session!

I was hoping to see the model/plan of the planned development. Just talking heads can't convey the vision.

very HubTropolis ... Thank You³ 😊
Thank you Future Cities Africa. The sessions are very informative.
Nice video 🇨🇦🇰🇪
Great Share Richard 👍
Miriam. This is absolutely excellent.
Great presentation Miriam. Good insights into Future Cities Africa. In Kenya, devolution has aided in the growth of cities; including very small urban places as spotted in the villages. What scenario do we envisage in future with land fragmention leading 'urbanised' rural scapes to the detriment of food security.?
You raise a very critical point, Maggy. Devolution in Kenya has led to the expansion of local economies, job creation, and the growth of small towns and shopping centres. This has been good for some households. County planners and managers have an interesting challenge - how can they encourage this growth, and coordinate planning, construction, and investment to create better and more inclusive nodes? What tools and instruments can they use to manage and coordinate subdivision and land use so that enough of the land is maintained for food production? Exciting times ahead!
Ok baby
You You You could
Hi Tsepo, hope you are well.
Thank-you fantastic informative interview. If the area is water scarce what is the sustainable human population? On a side note localised Grey Water recycling systems built into new developments. . Legislation is required for Grey Rain water tanks to have standard mosquito control measures, like sieves on inlets and outlets as mandatory.
This pandemic take over all colds and flu to covid 19. Please doctors be open and honest. Dont make us you sheep.
