Town 12:00-15:00 . Promoting co- operative governance and collaboration
through a multi stakeholder’s service hub in Philippi , Cape Town
The conference was in
partnership with Cordaid , Community Connections and the Philipp Community.
Cesvi Foundation hosted a ground breaking multi-stakeholder engagement
conference to mark the end of a European Union Funded project.
The conference seeks to bring
together stakeholders, which include citizens, community action groups and
local authorities who have vested interest in addressing issues of domestic
violence against women, children and youth related interventions.
For the past two years,
European Union funded Cesvi and its partners to implement a project whose
specific and overall objectives are improving service delivery for women,
children and youth in informal settlements in Cape Town through active citizenship
co- ordination and multi- stakeholders engagement, as a contribution to the
improvement of capacity and provision of social services and development
oriented services for the poor at a wider level respectively.
The conference covered critical
issues such as:
-
A
best practice approach for a building a hub focused on the delivery of
integrated domestic violence services, including lessons learnt and outcomes
achieved.
-
Institutionalising
cooperation and collaboration.
-

meetings as a form of engagement among Civil Society Organisations, Community
