9. Community Work Programme Upscaling of the Community Work Programme

10. CWP as an Opportunity to Fast-track Job Creation • CWP’s track record so far demonstrates that it can scale up far faster than its current targets suggest; • With waiting lists of over 1000 participants in most of its existing sites, the programme could double the projected numbers per site with little difficulty; • There is significant demands for new sites; • There are a range of opportunities to scale up particular areas of work already tested in CWP especially in the following areas: • Schools support: Placing matriculants at public schools • Food security: Food gardens (households, school, ECD) • Environmental work: land rehabilitation, erosion control, greening activities • Home-based care 10

11. The target is to implement the CWP countrywide in all 234 local municipalities and metros and to reach 250 000 people by 2013/214

12. Community Work Programme Expansion Plan

13. 1. The Strategy to reach 250 000 participants by 2013/2014 • The target is to ensure a CWP presence in every municipality by 2013/14. • Each of the current sites covers an average of five to 10 wards per municipality. • There is convergence of information on the identification of the most deprived wards in South Africa. • The greater majority of most deprived wards are in areas serviced by distressed local municipalities

14. 2. CWP Rollout and Site Selection • Considerations for selection of initial roll-out Municipalities • and wards will be based on the following: • Provincial Indices of Multiple Deprivation (PIMD)-Area-based measures of deprivation. 5 domains of deprivation: • Income and material deprivation • Employment deprivation • Health deprivation • Education deprivation • Living environment deprivation. • Alignment with other National and Provincial Interventions and Programmes: War on Poverty Programme, Presidential Nodal Areas-ISRDP, LGTAS Assessments (vulnerable municipalities), CRDP
