The state of Johannesburg: Current context and conditions
This GCRO Rapid Research Paper was prepared at the request of the Presidency, via Operation Vulindlela. The original paper was researched and written over three weeks ahead of President Cyril Ramaphosa's visit to the City of Johannesburg on 6-7 March 2025, and his inauguration of an intergovernmental intervention in the struggling city known as the Presidential Johannesburg Working Group (PJWG). The original paper was presented to various PJWG forums after submission, but not widely released. This published version has now been revised and updated.
