The Department of Home Affairs in South Africa has launched a groundbreaking initiative called “Home Affairs on Wheels”, bringing government services closer to the populace through a fleet of mobile office trucks. The trucks offer fullyequipped services, including applications for passports, smart IDs, birth, marriage, and death certificates, and will be stationed in towns and villages at specific times. The initiative aims to reduce the costs and distances rural residents incur to access these services, with plans to add a hundred more trucks each year until they reach a thousand.
