Day four, was a day filled with meetings in the beautiful part of Rosebank, Johannesburg. We can see why this area is called Rosebank, see photo below.
The first meeting was at Khulisa. Khulisa is an organisation which provides education, training & personal development in communities, schools, places of safety and correctional facilities. Khulisa tackles crime holistically, working at all levels of the crime cycle – preventing crime, diverting youth from the criminal justice system, providing alternatives to imprisonment, fostering personal transformation for those who are in prison, and assisting with their transition back into society. Khulisa helps families and communities to support victims who need healing and offenders who want to make a difference.
We also visited their training center where they teach past offenders to make items out of recycled products, eg: paper, pipes etc.

The second part of today was spent at the offices of Kessels & Smit, the learning company. Here we were briefed on the Gert Sibande District Municipality. There is alot of work involved & I know that our team will enjoy this challenge.
We have to have an early night as we are leaving at 05H30 to Secunda which is about two hours away from Johannesburg.
