NSG, KZN Legislature partner to strengthen governance through training

To enhance governance and service delivery, the National School of Government (NSG) has partnered with the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature to roll out targeted capacity-building training for its members and employees.

This strategic collaboration, formalised on Wednesday at the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature, signifies a shared commitment to strengthening governance through education, training, and the development of both elected public representatives and legislative employees.

The NSG will provide targeted training focused on improving ethical leadership and oversight, creating effective policies to enhance service delivery and engaging citizens in decision-making.

Speaker of the KZN Legislature, Nontembeko Boyce, emphasised that this initiative aligns with the Legislature’s ongoing programme of creating platforms to empower its members and employees so that they can serve with greater efficiency and impact.

“We believe that a well-capacitated Provincial Legislature can only be achieved through strong partnerships with institutions of learning, bodies supporting parliamentary democracy, and the broader community of KwaZulu-Natal,” Boyce said.

She said ongoing training would sharpen lawmakers’ ability to create impactful legislation, enhance public participation and strengthen oversight mechanisms, which will ultimately drive better service delivery.

A vision for a stronger province

Boyce stressed the importance of continuous professional development, saying that staying ahead in governance requires lifelong learning.

“By investing in continuous learning, we aim to ensure that our members are not just well-informed but fully equipped to address the evolving needs of the people they serve.”

Professor Busani Ngcaweni, Principal of the NSG, echoed this sentiment, expressing enthusiasm about the potential impact of the partnership.

“This collaboration is more than just training — it’s about shaping a more accountable, efficient, and citizen-focused government. By addressing the unique challenges faced by the Provincial Legislature, we are paving the way for stronger governance, improved service delivery, and policies that truly make a difference,” Ngcaweni said. – SAnews.gov.za

  1. Fun South African Fact: Travel to Tsitsikamma, on the border of the Western Cape and Eastern Cape to visit the world’s highest commercial bungee jump! Those who are brave enough can take the 216-meter jump off the Bloukrans Bridge and soar through the air towards the Bloukrans River below. Definitely a must for thrill-seekers and adrenaline-junkies!
