Dear all
Kindly spread the message across as Youth leaders needs to attend the first session to question the process on how the consultant company was appointed, also we need to carefull of a situation were consultants are given million of rand by City of Cape Town to undertake such research, all the need from us is “ intelectual capacity” and they forget about us.
I would like to encourage everyone to spread the message across and attend the first session schedule for nextweek,
Politicians, business & community leaders agree that we need a vision for Cape Town that will inspire us, that will include us everyone. A Vision that is brave & yet doable, if we work together. One that brings prosperity & equity to our region.
Freedthinkers, the company we are doing this work for, has been tasked by the City to facilitate a long-term common vision & goals, a strategy and some ideas about big projects that make a real difference. The process will be broad-based, inclusive & co-creative.
We are talking to leaders, residents, businesses, large & small, & civic organisations. In addition there will be many opportunities for people to input, in their own way & their own time. We analyse the inputs & present our findings to the City leaders.
Attached you will find a letter from our mayor, Patricia de Lille, outlining the objectives and goals of the special interest focus group discussions.
We would like to invite you to the
Civic Organisation Group that has been scheduled for Tuesday 13 March from 15h00 – 17h00 and will be held in the Foreshore area. Snacks and refreshments will be served.
Once I receive your confirmation that you are able send a representative from your organisation, I will forward you detailed information regarding the venue.
Kind regards
Minah Radebe
