dc.description | The three-year funded programme at the University of the Wiwatersrand (Wits) was titled 'Urban Resilience Assessment for Sustainable Urban Development" and was developed with the specific intention of giving support to local government in South Africa. This was done with the recognition that municipalities have a potentially vital role in proactively managing processes of change. | en_ZA |
