Community Activists Tell Their Story – Driving Change in Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni (ed. Claire Benit-Gbaffou)

The Wits University Masters in Urban Studies students, CUBES and NRF Chair in Development Planning and Modelling have launched the research report Community Activists Tell Their Stories: Driving Change in Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni, edited by Prof. Claire Benit-Gbaffou, on Monday 24 June 2013 in Wits University, Johannesburg.

About 50 people attended the event, including community activists, students and academics.

Based on Masters students research, the report compiles 13 portraits of community activists in Johannesburg and Ekurhuleni, and reflects on the difference that community leaders make in the city; on the excitements and challenges of community leadership; on the nature of urban change.
