Our very own Hannah Hudson presents the achievements of CBM (citizen-based monitoring) in South Africa
Hannah Hudson (@Act4Integrity) provides an anchor presentation on the co-creation of the CBM approach with South African municipalities #COMPACT2025
Kudos to Dessiderius, AKA Chief, a South African citizen monitor working with @Oudtmun to improve community participation and local government responsiveness
Dessiderius Claassen from @Oudtmun talking about the challenges & lessons learned from piloting CBM, which included accessing the project site (initial resistance from the site manager) as well as the need for monitors to understand some technical project information #COMPACT2025
We are proud of Danielle, a South African citizen monitor working to improve community engagement and local government responsiveness in her municipality @KougaMuni
Danielle Schaap from @KougaMuni explaining how the CBM approach assisted the municipality with engaging communities around the implementation of a large infrastructure project #COMPACT2025

Jabu Hlatshwayo (@PARInstitute) provided implementation support on the CBM piloting and highlights the need to build trust between all parties involved and ensure regular feedback loops to communities #COMPACT2025

Concelia Choma from @SALGA_Gov focuses her reflections on the critical issue of how to institutionalise and embed the approach in municipalities: "CBM needs to find a home and sit inside municipal structures, the Public Participation Unit (PPU) is a useful place” #COMPACT2025

COMPACT has developed a factsheet on CBM and is finalising a case study as well as a CBM institutionalisation guide for municipalities: pari.org.za/wp-content/uploa… #COMPACT2025

Violet Shivutse speaking the importance of trust in VCM. "How are we able to ensure that there is continuous dialogue that builds trust? Dialogue has always helped between communities, companies and farmers" @AKF_Global @Act4Integrity #VCM #Community #trust
Apoorva Oza: The insurance sector needs to be incentivised to be involved in the voluntary carbon markets sector – there is an element of risk which they are wary of, but there is much to be gained from their involvement @AKF_Global @Act4Integrity #VCM #risk #trust
Jasmina Haynes: How do you bring voices and action of communities as equal players to policy-makers? To date, our international development sector has not achieved this @AKF_Global @Act4Integrity #greenaccountability #data #VCM
Apoorva Oza: The community is the weaker partner in carbon credit agreements – so how does one make sure this partnership is inclusive? If anything goes wrong, who is a player powerful enough to enforce contracts? @AKF_Global @Act4Integrity #VCM #Community
