Yes we at the Dr KK Municipality are very proud of the 3 GIRRL projects we have funded within our District. We are also lucky to have a very supportive Mayor.

Brilliant! What better way than to empower those who are the most vulnerable and yet simultaneously have the biggest potential to influence the way their community perceives and responds to disaster risks?
