The strategic engagement focused on strengthening financial sustainability, accelerating infrastructure delivery, enhancing water and sanitation programmes, and aligning planning instruments such as the IDP and SDBIP with measurable community outcomes.
Emphasis was also placed on responsive governance, improved disaster preparedness, and long-term spatial and economic planning.
