COP26 (delayed by a year due to the Covid-19 pandemic) has a unique urgency and could prove to be one of the most important conferences of our time. Most experts agree that the window for limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees is rapidly closing, and the decade out to 2030 will be the most critical to achieving this target. Africa contributes just 2% of global greenhouse gas emissions yet is shouldered with the greatest burden in transitioning to low carbon economies and is the most vulnerable to climate shocks.

- Description
- The Auditor-General’s reports of the last decade have painted a rather grim picture of deteriorating governance at local government level. Municipalities are increasingly racking up huge bills in unauthorised and wasteful expenditure, failing to submit documents required for auditing on time or not at all. The AG’s reports have increasingly hammered on the issue of a lack of accountability for misuse of public funds.
The SA Local Government Authority has highlighted that at least 66% of councillors have no post-matric qualification as one of the major reasons behind poor governance. However, corruption, party political patronage, and lack of capacity have been highlighted as some of the major reasons for poor performance by municipalities. There has been a change in legislation that gives the AG new powers to go after those implicated in corruption. But will this change anything?

- The disruption caused by the onset of the SARS-CoV-2 or Covid-19 global pandemic was an unforeseen stumbling block for the developments made towards gender equality, professional economic parity, Inclusion & transformation, the reduction or eradication of gender-based violence and femicide and the economic empowerment of Africa’s women. While the world struggled to flatten the curve and reduce the rate of infection, a new socio-cultural dynamic took a different form, further complicating the nature of work for women/caregivers.
We are reminded that globally, women represent 70 per cent of the health and social sector workforce, and that on average, women do three times as much unpaid care and domestic work as men. This has long-term consequences for their economic security and overall well-being.
Traditionally, family-based work roles remain largely in the female domain with female members of most families being expected to factor in time to execute thei...
