President Cyril Ramaphosa will on Wednesday, 2 March 2022, virtually deliver a keynote address to the opening session of the sixth South African Local Government Association (SALGA) National Conference.

The President is scheduled to address the gathering, which takes place over three days at the Cape Town International Convention Centre, around 15h15.

The conference will be held from 2 to 4 March 2022 under the theme “Consolidating the role of local government in rebuilding local communities to meet their social, economic and material needs”.

The event will be attended by delegates from municipalities, national and provincial government, academic institutions, partners and stakeholders within the local government sector, as well as business.

Due to COVID-19 regulations, the conference will be held on a Hybrid Model, with only three (3) delegates per municipality attending physically at the venue and all other councillors and municipal officials participating virtually.

SALGA is an autonomous association of all 257 South African local governments with one national office and nine provincial offices.

The organisation has a National Executive Committee comprising elected councillors (primarily mayors and office bearers in municipalities) that is responsible for the affairs of the organisation between National Conferences and Members’ Assemblies.

The President’s address will be streamed live across the Presidency’s social media channels and on SALGA social channels.
