Mahikeng: the employers, the venues and the calendar

The North West provincial departments and the legislature are based in Mmabatho, so strategic planning, APP sessions, oversight workshops and public participation meetings make up most of the facilitation work. A university campus and a TVET college add education demand, and cattle farming around Lichtenburg and Zeerust brings agricultural training. Venues are mostly government-linked conference rooms, hotels and guest houses in Mmabatho, plus lodges and game farms in the surrounding bushveld. The city is far from Gauteng, about three and a half to four hours by road, so many outside facilitators budget for a night or two. Setswana is the main language for community sessions.
