The aim of this Programme is to fight the environmental degradation and ensure that our country is free from harmful environment and people live in protected environment for the benefit of current and future generations. This is done through mass public employment of the unemployed with a special prioritization of women, youth and people living with disabilities. This programme is about keeping public spaces clean and tidy, whilst ensuring that people are benefiting at the same time. Beneficiaries of this program assist in cleaning Municipality town, roads, parks and sport grounds, etc. This programme also seeks to strengthen community development through self-regulation.

Members of the Department of Forestry, Fisheries, and the Environment recently visited iSimangaliso to conduct a follow-up on the project implementation in municipality areas where this project is being implemented.

iSimangaliso’s mission is to protect, conserve and present its World Heritage values for current and future generation whilst benefiting communities living in and adjacent to the Park.
