• Shortage of social workers in the North West province; and
• Lack of funding for centres for children with severe to profound intellectual disability

The proposed stakeholder engagement will provide an opportunity to explore, among other things, solutions to the above challenges and for the SAHRC to receive time-bound plans for filling the social worker posts and addressing the funding challenges faced by centres for disabled children.

The stakeholder engagement is scheduled to take place as follows:

Date:    23 November 2023

Venue: SAHRC’s offices, 25 Heystek Street, Rustenburg

Time:   10:00 am
