Every third Saturday of the Month the City of Johannesburg does a city-wide cleaning campaign. The campaign is called “A re sebetseng” meaning let’s work. It strives to encourage all of Johannesburg’s residents to take care of the environment; and seeks to promote a culture of reducing, re-using, and recycling our waste to ensure that Johannesburg becomes one of the cleanest cities in Africa.
The campaign is facilitated by Pikitup, but it is the responsibility of all Councillors, city departments, and regional offices to drive the programme.
It aims to address issues of littering, illegal dumping, overloading of bins, and dilapidation of open spaces that usually results in the manifestation of pests.
Plastic bags and gloves are distributed at walk-in centres, clinics, libraries, and participating businesses. Filled bags are collected on the same day by Pikitup.
The exciting opportunity to keep KAE and the greater Johannesburg Municipality clean will take place today the 19th of October on the below details:
