InTAcT Seminar
The City Support Programme (CSP) of National Treasury convened a seminar at the DBSA, Midrand, Gauteng on 19 and 20 July 2018. The two-day programme presented CSP’s City Integrity, Transparency, Social Accountability and Technology Project (InTAcT). The seminar presentations can be accessed in the Knowledge Repository.
Themes: Social Accountability
The Social Accountability theme focuses on the city relationships with external stakeholders and citizens, and how these external stakeholders should be engaged to strengthen accountability, integrity and transparency. It approaches accountability through an emphasis on citizen engagement and public participation. The InTAcT project has developed several resources and tools to assist cities in this regard.

documenting critical issues
which we were probably aware of but had not been pushed to address.”

Knowledge Repository
The InTAcT Knowledge Repository is an online
database of all the learning products produced by the InTAcT project. This knowledge
has been organised and categorised so that users can quickly and easily search the
database for relevant information. The information may be read online or downloaded
for later use. The knowledge contained in the repository will have most relevance
for city officials and councillors who are looking for innovative governance ideas,
as well as practical guidelines for enhancing integrity, social accountability and
smart governance in cities.
