The MMC for Environment and Infrastructure Services Department (EISD), Cllr Jack Sekwaila, has launched the Greater Johannesburg Environmental Forum in partnership with Pikitup, marking a new era of collaboration between the City and environmental stakeholders.

The Forum brings together 11 local cooperatives from across Johannesburg, each playing an active role in recycling, stream cleaning, and environmental education. Its main goal is to strengthen partnerships, promote sustainable practices, and amplify environmental advocacy throughout the city.
