On an ad hoc basis GCRO provides strategic support to various Gauteng Provincial Government departments or to municipalities. Some of the work we've done over the last year includes the following:
GCRO has been called upon by the Gauteng Planning Commission (GPC) to provide research support for an emerging long-term development strategy for the city-region, known as G2055. This will be a key focus of our work over the next year.
In November 2010, the GCRO was tasked, through the Gauteng Provincial Department of Economic Development, to develop a Green Strategic Programme for Gauteng (GSP). In August 2011, the GSP was approved by the Gauteng Executive Council (EXCO).
During the first six months of 2011, the GCRO has embarked on a statistical and spatial analysis process to provide strategic decision support to the Gauteng Planning Commission.
