Compact - My Municipality
The document details citizen engagement workshops held in 12 South African municipalities as part of the COMPACT project's second phase of action research. With 262 participants, the workshops identified significant failures in the Integrated Development Plan (IDP) participation process and a lack of communication between municipal leadership and communities. These findings are being used to develop a COMPACT Toolbox and individual municipal reports to establish a baseline for improving public participation.
