Imbizo Focus Week
7 - 13 October 2002
The theme of this Imbizo, the third Focus Week since
the launch of the initiative in 2001, was Lend a Hand to
Protect Children's Rights. Its emphasis was on registration
for child grants. It also co-incided with
Public
Service Week and
Social
Development Month
[PDF].
Over
320 activities were held, through which all spheres of
government - national, provincial and local, through members of
the Cabinet, Provincial Executives and Municipal Councils - were
in direct communication with the public in all the provinces
across South Africa. At many of the events there were temporary
registration sites to register those who were eligible for child
support grants. In this way government helped translating into
practical action the President's call at the beginning of the
year for "massive mobilisation around registration for social
grants".
