The Sustainability Handbook: Volume 5 is a publication focusing on the state of infrastructure and sustainability in South Africa. The handbook discusses the findings of SAICE's infrastructure report card, revealing the poor and worsening condition of many infrastructure assets. Despite these challenges, the handbook emphasizes the existence of pockets of excellence and aims to identify best practices and leadership approaches for success.


The publication includes thought pieces from leaders in various sectors, showcasing disruptive and experimental work. It questions the role of the National Treasury in public procurement, exploring whether it should be the custodian of such processes. Additionally, the handbook addresses the issue of fake social media messages spreading misinformation about potential nationwide blackouts, raising awareness of the interconnected nature of systems and the fragility of infrastructure. In essence, The Sustainability Handbook: Volume 5 serves as a platform for dialog, analysis, and the exploration of innovative solutions to address sustainability challenges in South Africa's infrastructure.
