Towns Action Network

Africa

The launch event for Changemaker Towns Network was held online, convened by the Western Cape Economic Development Partnership, in collaboration with the In Transformation Initiative. A diverse group of over 70 people from across South Africa joined, including changemakers from local partnerships, CEOs, researchers, mayors, and residents.

 

Highlights included 

  • ‘Fireside’ storytelling by changemakers and local partnerships from Cederberg, Makhanda, Greyton and Sundays River Valley 
  • Offers of support from government officials and businesses alike 
  • An overview of the Small Towns Regeneration Strategy, recently launched by the Department of Cooperative Governance.

 

A recording of the full session is on the WCEDP YouTube page for those who missed it.
