New approaches to solid waste management
Through the Municipal Infrastructure Support Agency (MISA), COGTA used the PES to experiment with new ways to tackle the challenge of solid waste. This started with a target of 25 municipalities, 85% of which were rural. But demand from municipalities has seen outreach expand to over 44. The programme supports municipalities to identify collection, sorting and recycling options that divert waste from landfill and explore revenue generation opportunities for community enterprises, by looking at the entire waste value chain, with a focus on community awareness and the circular economy. The programme has also provided support to small enterprises. MISA also continues to support the application of labour-intensive methods in infrastructure in 15 municipalities.

(Data captured up until March 2025)
The Presidential Employment Stimulus consolidates data reported by participating departments. This data is subject to ongoing verification and audit by departments. The numbers reported may change based on final verification and audit outcomes. Where work opportunities straddle financial years, the audit process requires that they are reported in both years. For example, Teachers Assistants who start work in February and continue into the next financial year. To avoid ‘double counting’ of participants, this is corrected under ‘total opportunities’ reported. Note however that under the performance breakdown, the cumulative annual figures are presented.
