EU | NT - Asivikelane: Protecting One Another

A collaborative project by the European Union, National Treasury of South Africa and Storyscope.

The Asivikelane initiative gives a voice to informal settlement residents in South Africa’s major cities who face severe basic service shortages.

Residents offer us a window into their daily experiences by responding to various questions, often about their access to water, clean toilets and waste removal.

The detailed results are published monthly and shared with the relevant municipalities and national government departments to enable swift government response.
