The Gauteng government has embarked on a project of investing in communities, but
Tasneem Motara writes that these projects need to be safeguarded.
One of the most significant ways of sustaining and advancing our society is through building social and economic infrastructure. To take our nation forward in this area, government is on a path to unlock infrastructure investments to change our socio-economic landscape.
Our infrastructure investments, detailed in our Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan to overcome the impact of Covid-19, are more than just bricks and mortar. These are targeted projects that will kick-start our economy, and create more opportunities for economic participation by event small enterprises. We intend to use infrastructure to secure dignified work, inclusive growth and social protection for those in need.
