Common purpose
The purpose of the STI 4 SHSRoadmap is to unlock the potentialof South Africa’s human settlementsfor a decent standard of living; safe,resilient and sustainable householdsand neighbourhoods via the smartuptake of science, technology andinnovation.
IntroductionThe Science, Technology and Innovation for Sustainable Human Settlements Technology Roadmap (STI 4 SHS Roadmap) will set out a 10 year plan for a coordinated investment and collaboration between key stakeholders in pursuit of the Common Purpose. The STI 4 SHS Roadmap definition is to be underpinned by intensive engagement, and extensive research (referenced and available for further scrutiny at www.sti4shs.co.za ).
In order to engage relevant stakeholders, a number of distinct stakeholder groups were identified, viz. government and civil society, academia, private sector & industry and the investment community. In the first round each stakeholder group is to be engaged separately. This report records inputs from the first Gauteng Province
(GP) consultative workshop, which formed part of a systematic provincial consultative workshop series targeting government thought leaders, from national, provincial and local government.
The purpose of the workshops was to reflect on the current state of technology in human settlements, envision a future preferred state, and identify the technologies, innovations and capabilities and the necessary “ingredients” to reach that state over time.
Twenty-two participants from the following organisations are acknowledged for their active participation in the GP workshop:

OverviewRoadmapping
Roadmapping uses a graphical approach to visualise an entire strategy on a page. It provides a framework to help organisations tackle fundamental questions applicable in any strategic context and is used extensively at company, sector and national levels to align investment and research with strategic goals.
Significant features of roadmappingare its ability to build consensus, breadth and versatility: roadmaps can encompass a complex scope of issues and long timeframes, whilst at the same time focusing down on critical details, leading to decisions and actions.
Workshop preliminariesCSIR hosted the GP Provincial Consultative Workshop on the 4th of September 2018 in Pretoria. The STI 4 SHS Draft Desktop Review Trends Report was electronically provided to participants before the meeting, and an excerpt on Mega-challenges and Trends presented (available at www.sti.shs.co.za).
The workshop participants were then presented a province-specific extract from the forthcoming Green Book focussing on Risk trajectories of South African settlements. This input is incorporated into this report and will heavily inform the validation phase of roadmap development.

Background
Strong evidence that extreme weather events are becoming more frequent and intense with climate change expected to amplify these trends, particularly heat waves, floods, droughts, wildfires and storm surges
Strong evidence to support that Urbanisation will continue & that this will place even more pressure on infrastructure and service delivery
More frequent and intense events combined with a growing and urbanising population, poor land use practices, growing informal sector = likely exacerbate the vulnerabilities of communities and place more people at risk of climate induced disasters
Growth can be a catalyst for economic growth but effective planning and policy interventions are needed
Spatial planning will be vital to planning for peoples sustainable livelihoods
7
Rationale for the Green Book
Knowing what change to adapt for and how to adapt for this
change is of critical importance to decision makers involved in the planning and design of human
settlements.
The Green Book was commissioned with the aim of supporting municipal planning on the development of climate-resilient cities and
settlements through research in climate adaptation.
8
South Africa’s urban future
SA is expected to follow the worldwide trend - experiencing high population growth and urbanisation. Current projections indicate and additional 19-24 million people to be added to the country in the next three decades. Vast majority of growth to be confined to cities and towns
9
Gauteng’s population estimates 2050
Gauteng’s population is projected to reach 20 – 22 million people by 2050

Gauteng’s LM vulnerabilities
Socio-economic: Households vulnerabilities (household composition, income composition, education, health, access to basic services, safety & security)
Economic vulnerability: Economy of the LM (diversification, size of economy, labour force, GDP growth/decline pressure, inequality)
Physical vulnerability: Access & infrastructure (road infrastructure, housing types, density, accessibility within the LM)
Environmental vulnerability: Air quality, environmental governance, competition between ecology & urban encroachment)

Implications for GP
The significant population growth projected, if not managed and planned for effectively, will place an enormous amount of pressure on bulk infrastructure delivery and will have critical implications for national and regional policies and inter-governmental prioritisation efforts
This growth however also opens up the possibilities of designing principles of resilience into our cities, principles that can open up pathways to change
Increase in severe events will result in flash flooding, hail, damaging winds and lightning impacting infrastructure and housing
Heat stress on ecology Heat stress on human comfort– specifically elderly, lower income and youth The population growth and warmer climate projections will have significant relevance for
energy demand (increase demand for cooling in summer due to maximum temperature increase, decrease warming demand given increase in minimum temp)

Cultural and perception factorsApplicability to SA context - reject public transport, not safe/attractive to cycle
Production factorsCombined transport/road and water specialists required for improved storm water/ run off systems
Investment factorsBuy in to public transport - current inefficiencies are a detering factor to buy in
Infrastructure and maintenance factors Cycle lanes required - safety is a challenge
Undesirable social or environmental effectsTOD - urban heat islands, risks of high densites on social issues. TOD without adequate public transport = more traffic
Policy and regulatory frameworkImproved policies required. Implementation of policies and regulations

What policy instruments are needed? Water conservation, Climate - CO2 emissions, health and safetyWhat is the likelihood of success? Likely - if pilot succeeds and can be showcased
Concern was raised that too few persons were in attendance.
Planning Committee agreed process yielded 22 participants. A benchmarking exercise suggests Technology Roadmapping should target not more than 30 delegates, with about 20 preferable. The number of participants was within range. The CSIR will take a proactive role in identifying and inviting workshop participants.
Concern was raised that the attendance at the meeting was not representative of the sector.
The GP consultative workshop attracted participation from 11 organisations. The concern that these do not fully represent the sector is somewhat warranted, GP consultative workshop may be repeated.
Channels were followed in accordance with protocols and in accordance with Planning Committee resolution. However DHS DGs letter to HODs reaching delegated officials with insufficient notice for the first two workshops
despite persistent and active follow up from DHS.
Concern was raised that DHS was not present.
National DHS was represented by two delegates, and received full support of their executive. Provincial DHS was represented. Municipal level participation was suboptimal, due to date confusion. Other sector departments (other than water) were not represented. A second Gauteng provincial consultation will be scheduled.
DST raised the concern that there were “too many” CSIR representatives.
CSIR was well-represented in the first workshop (4 facilitators & 2 participants) in order to ensure that a sufficient number of staff were capacitated to facilitate workshops in provinces. No action remedial action planned.
It was recommended to consider revising the definition of human settlements -consider the scope of the project (based on this definition).
The definition was crafted in consultation with the National Department of Human Settlements and presented to the STI 4 SHS Steering Committee. Recommendation noted.
Workshop feedback
Delegate registration, anonymising and tracking procedure (colour coding) considered successful.
Retained.
The STI 4 SHS Roadmap Project overview was considered good; but some redundancy in Workshop Overview.
Two presentations consolidated.
Global and megatrends presentations (incorporating trends analysis report) and provincial risk trajectories report was considered excellent.
Retained.
It was recommended to emphasise the focus on STI for SHS in the briefing document and during the workshop.
Refine wording in instructions. Process refined.
Documents reengineered and piloted in Northern Cape:
Revised agenda;
Revised briefing note;
Revised templates.
The immediate identification of interventions without reference to the core issues was premature in the process.
Reorder activities in workshop.
The individual activities to be completed at the end: “Technologies and Knowledge Base” and “Enablers and Resources” was confusing.
Reallocate as group work and integrate into matrix.
It was recommended to shorten the workshop briefing note.
Briefing note reviewed and streamlined.
Formal feedback process on consultative workshop needed.
Feedback forms drafted and included in workshop pack (piloted in Northern Cape).
Concern was raised in data coding, analysis and report writing.
Process was refined.
AnalysisData
Data ELT
As recorded above, the following qualitative data points were captured from the workshop:
Needs n= 81
Priority interventions n= 14
Response tables n = 13
Three initial interventions were excluded because they did not relate to the household or neighbourhood scale (n=1), they related to consumables (n=1); or they were not associated with science, technology or innovation (n=1).
Likelihood of success13 of the 17 Response tables received expressed a high to very high likelihood of success for priority interventions, whilst the remaining four were unresponsive.
Benefits
Benefits to implementation of priority interventions as identified in the Response tables were distributed as follows:
Themes
The top five elements as determined by participant vote were as follows: Water and sanitation
Shelter and construction
Governance
Land
Transport and mobility
By means of desktop classification, researchers grouped the Many interventions and needs into themes fields as shown below.
Environmental35%
Personal health and wellbeing
12%Economic 16%
Societal37%
All the Many interventions and needs from the workshop were categorised into common themes which are plotted on the Themes by Count Treemap below. Areas are proportional to the number of times a theme appeared. Voting resulted in a shift in emphasis compared to the initial themes identified which are illustrated below. This is significant in moderating for bias, which may have arisen as a result of the high number of workshop participants being in water-related professional fields.

Pain pointsThe Many interventions and needs from the workshop were categorised according to one of four Key issues categories namely; Regulation, policy or law; Planning; Knowledge management; or Technologies, equipment and operations, obtained from workshop inputs. This was in order to determine where the “Pain points” are. The size of the dots demonstrate the number of times the Keyissue was identified by workshop participants. The significance is that, whilst generally regulation, policy or law is considered less of a Key issue, attention is needed across all Key issues for all identified interventions..
BarriersBarriers to uptake of STI 4 SHS for selected interventions as identified in the Response tables were distributed as follows:

Technological factors.
Demand.
Cultural and perception factors.
Skills and knowledge.
Production factors.
Investment factors.
Infrastructure and maintenance factors.

Policy and regulatory framework.
Other
The top six barriers identified in descending order of frequency were demand; cultural and perception factors; technological factors; production factors; skills and knowledge; and policy and regulatory framework.
Key risksAlthough not discussed in the GP workshop, a Key risk as identified in precedent road map studies is vested interests which can present a fatal barrier to Roadmap buy-in. In the context of STI 4 SHS the identified risks are to revenue collection from utilities in the event of gaining independence from municipal services (eg. energy, water and waste). Science, Technology and Innovation which may result in job losses may be untenable.
Skills and knowledge emerged as the most important enabler from workshop input; followed by tools, systems and processes, with finance, policy instruments also being identified as important. Of importance is that tools, systems and processes were associated strongly with planning and integration activities. Resources, infrastructure were strongly associated with manufacture and supply. The following Critical success factors were recognised: leadership and culture; tested, verified and updated performance library, and a healthy innovation pipeline (with exciting/ inspirational value).

EnablersThe top six enablers to uptake of STI 4 SHS for selected interventions as identified from analysis of the Response tables as follows:
Qualitative SynthesisThe data collected and analysed above was synthesised as follows:
A Basic pathway for uptake of STI in SHS was described, with elements in the lifecycle value chain represented as a sequential flow from strategic planning, through selection, supply, implementation, operation and disposal. According to green economy principles, the disposal phase should be considered in the strategic planning phase, however this did not feature in the GP workshop input, and is indicated as a weak link.
Enablers from the workshop input were overlaid on the Basic pathway.
Barriers and Key risks from the workshop were overlaid on the basic pathway. The icons indicate the position and relative importance (by size) of barriers.
Priority Interventions from the
workshop were overlaid on the Basic pathway. These will need support across the full value chain, as illustrated in the “Pain points” graph shown earlier. From visualising chart, icons are placed in the pathway at the point at which 0-2 year interventions were closest fit. (i.e. where workshop participants identified as the starting point for achieving the Priority interventions).
Indicative players as identified in the workshop (from the Response tables) were placed on the Basic pathway in the location related to their primary role as identified in the STI 4 SHS Status Quo Report. Stakeholders in grey were identified previously, but not identified in the provincial consultative workshop.
Feedback loops are important to establish to ensure that during the implementation phase of the Roadmap project, robust and relevant M&E can occur, and an adaptive
management approach can be implemented. The first draft feedback loops have been indicated on the overlay.
Preliminary clusters
From the qualitative synthesis described above, a number of preliminary clusters were identified as follows:
Human settlements planning, delivery models, strategic planning, technology clearing and supply side support.
Quality check
Clusters were reviewed by researchers to determine whether overall Roadmap objectives are furthered. Do the clusters overcome conservatism?, stimulate investment?, provide decision support?

Qualitative synthesisDiscussionThe inputs from the GP Provincial Consultative workshop will be consolidated with inputs from other provinces, as well as inputs from other stakeholder groups (See Appendix B for stakeholder engagement strategy).
There is an emphasis from inputs received on strategic, planning and governance aspects, which may reflect the bias of the target stakeholder group (government). However through further engagement it might be expected that the suggested clusters will be refined and will change through the process.
Remapping the priority interventionsWith the preliminary clusters identified above, the Priority interventions were mapped in Opportunity clusters as shown below.

Opportunities to be appraised
• Prioritised
• Validated
• Impact
• Shortlisted
Interventions identified in the desktop reviews, and in provincial consultative workshops will be sorted according to opportunity clusters and prioritised in accordance with “key issues” identified in the workshop engagement. The three interventions obtaining the most votes per workshop will be validated.
The validation process will systematically evaluate costs, and benefits, per intervention taking both demand and supply into consideration. These are to be compared to existing capabilities in consultation with expert advisors. Overall likelihood of success will be estimated, based on consolidation of validation criteria. Quick wins will be identified.
Alignment with vulnerabilities and goals selected from the NUA, NDP, SDGs and IUDF will be assessed, to determine the potential impact of each intervention. The impacts will be consolidated to cluster level.
Based on the prioritisation, validation, and impact assessments, the interventions will be ranked according to their strategic alignment, value, likelihood of success and impact. This is the draft investment portfolio. Collaborators and partners will be identified for the most promising technologies, and a draft implementation plan will be co-created.
Draft RoadmapThe advanced Draft STI 4 SHS Roadmap is currently scheduled for June 2019. It will set out a 10 year plan for a coordinated
investment and collaboration plan between key stakeholders. Following various targeted engagements, including the Provincial
Consultative Workshop series, a Draft STI 4 SHS Roadmap Framework will be presented which will summarise the status quo,
opportunities, define an investment portfolio and provide a detailed implementation plan.
