In 2013, the Mpumalanga provincial office issued an investigative report with findings and recommendations against the provincial Department of Health following complaints pertaining to poor delivery of healthcare services in the province. Despite the recommendations which were intended to improve the level of service delivery on healthcare services, the Commission continues to receive many complaints from rural communities on the violation of the right to healthcare services.
The workshops are intended to equip rural communities with information on the content of the right to healthcare services as well as the role and responsibilities of government in strengthening the promotion and protection the right.
The workshops are targeting community-based organizations and ordinary members of the public, and are scheduled to take place as follows:
