Workshops

The Municipal Outreach Project will host a series of workshops over the next three years, at each of the eight target municipalities. Each of the workshops will have specific objectives, and these will culminate in implementing best practice interventions to combat poverty.

Major Urban Poverty Challenges Identification (MUPCI) workshops — by nkgafela — last modified 2009-02-24 09:10

The MUPCI workshops will be conducted in each of the eight municipalities covered by the project. The South African Institute of Race Relations does not measure poverty solely in terms of the financial position of a given community or individual. Rather, the Institute identifies the broader manifestations of poverty. These include issues such as access to clean water and sanitation, access to housing, access to security and health services, gender equality, the rights of children and other vulnerable groups, access to employment and education, and developmental infrastructure. The MUPCI workshops will take place during the first year of the project at each of the eight targeted municipalities.
