SALGA
The
South African Local Government Association (SALGA) is an organization
mandated by the new South African Constitution to assist in the wholesale
transformation of local government in South Africa from the
pre-1994 regime to the new dispensation under the country's first
democratically elected government.
The Constitution envisages
an important role for organized local government in the new South Africa,
with a unique focus on developmental service delivery. As such, SALGA
plays a core role in a variety of areas related to local government
transformation and as a national representative of the local government
sector and its employees.
The new SALGA strategy
responds to the challenges facing organised local government, addresses
past weaknesses and drives forward the process of consolidating the
transformation process of local government.
