As South Africa commemorates Africa Month, it is an opportunity to reflect on the country’s strides in building a united, nonracial, nonsexist, and prosperous society. Among the key areas where progress has been made is infrastructure development, spearheaded by the Department of Public Works and Infrastructure (DPWI) under the stewardship of Minister Sihle Zikalala.
Winter can bring unpredictable and sometimes fierce weather conditions, particularly in Cape Town. The City of Cape Town understands the importance of taking proactive measures to reduce the risks associated with the winter months. To this end, the City has established the Winter Task Team, consisting of over 25 City departments and external partners, to oversee risk mitigation measures before and during winter, with the Disaster Risk Management Centre (DRMC) coordinating the team’s work.
