  complementary roles of each sector of society and
  each sphere of government including
  accountability and transparency
• Fulfilling our constitutional obligation to
  provide for the rights and needs of all citizens
  within a human rights context and framework

4
Values (cont)

• Developing an economic approach that concurrently
  addresses issues of sustained economic growth,
  reduction of poverty, unemployment and creation
  of jobs, i.e. issues of both the first and second
  economy, as part of an intrinsic whole
• Meeting our national and international
  obligations, and contributing to national and
  international commitments to reduce poverty and
  unemployment, such as the UN Charter on Human
  Rights, WSSD, Agenda 21, and others.

5
Values (Cont)

• Other core values important to the developmental
  approach are
• Acknowledgement and respect for peoples
  potential to develop and grow
• Recognition of the rights of all to participate
  in their own development and decision-making, and
  being accountable for their own lives
• A commitment to facilitate social processes that
  build effective relationships, healthy
  organisations and communities.

6
Social Development Model

• Despite having adopted a developmental approach
  to service delivery, the focus over the last
  decade has been predominantly on Social Security.
• This was to the detriment of other developmental
  social services
• The social sector is being called upon to give
  account of what it does and provincial
  departments of social development in particular
  are challenged by how they reposition themselves
  once Social Security is autonomous

Social Development Model

Developmental Challenges

• There is a general consensus within the province
  that the developmental challenges facing the
  province are as follows
• Lack of social cohesion
• High levels of unemployment
• High Rate of Poverty
• Income inequality, especially at lower levels
• High crime rate

9
Developmental Challenges (Cont)

• Early school leaving rate/drop-out rate
• Disintegration of family units
• High numbers of children living and working in
  the streets
• Child abuse with increase in sexual abuse and
  child trafficking
• High level of substance abuse, dependency and
  trafficking
• HIV and AIDS
• Mainstreaming people with disabilities
• Care of older persons

10
Model for Service Delivery

• Decentralization has been adopted as one of the
  key transformation strategies of the Department
• Previously, the Department consisted of a Head
  Office, and ten decentralised service offices,
  responsible for service delivery.
• Regional offices the focus of social service
  delivery and will be developed into fully
  operational cost centres
• Decentralising decision-making and resources to
  district office level is regarded as critical to
  manage current inequalities and the
  redistribution of services in a sustainable
  manner

Partnerships and Alliances

• Historically social welfare services in South
  Africa have been rendered through both Government
  and civil society organizations.
• Government acknowledges that many formal
  organisations have the skills, expertise,
  infrastructure and other resources that could
  contribute to reconstruction, development and the
  provision of service.
• NPOs are a vital community resource providing
  services at community level. Community based and
  emerging organisations are often best place and
  have the potential to render services to the
  marginalized poor and especially rural
  communities
• The Department and the NPOs and FBOs are not
  the only role players within Social Delivery
  arena

13
Partnerships and Alliances
14
Partnerships and Alliances

• The challenge for the Department is the
  development and implementation of a Costing Model
  for NPO services which will feed into the
  budgeting process of the Department
• NPOs rendering services in all areas have a need
  for capacity building in
• Financial Management
• Project Management
• HR Management
• Monitoring and Evaluation
• The Department does not have the competency to
  provide this capacity building
• Departmental Regional Offices do not have
  capacity (HR and Skills) to monitor and evaluate
  funded developmental services and provide
  guidance to NPOs.
