Fixing Johannesburg must be a national priority

CDE Executive Director Ann Bernstein speaks to Mandy Wiener about CDE’s new series, Johannesburg Matters. She discusses the launch report, Joburg in Jeopardy, highlighting the city’s deteriorating state and arguing that “by any metric you can judge a city, Johannesburg is absolutely failing on all fronts”. Bernstein emphasises that Johannesburg is South Africa’s most important city and that reversing its decline must therefore be treated as a national priority.
