The City of Johannesburg has announced a new project to enter into ‘large-scale, innovative and fully funded’ private-sector partnerships to boost the city’s public parks.

The multi-year initiative will help make the metropole’s parks safer and more environmentally friendly and forms part of a R1 billion green campaign, said the city’s mayoral committee member for community development Ronald Harris.

Harris said the power of ‘greening’ to address environmental and socio-economic challenges and the associated benefits for partners will be explored at the city’s inaugural ‘Action Imbizo’ scheduled for 23 June in Sandton.
