Waterberg Community Projects

The role of WDI is to identify opportunities and needs in the Waterberg, to investigate them, to facilitate, to promote co-operation, to monitor and to encourage.  It has become abundantly clear that the local authorities have neither the capacity nor the funding to fulfil the function of service delivery in the Waterberg.  As a result, it is the responsibility of each community to step up to the plate and make their voices heard.
