Weaknesses

Voluntary project management structures as steering was not effective and functions more effectively in advisory capacity Continuous funding is required – the project does not generate an income Sufficient partners from the business sphere are not yet established

Strengths

PDP links the community with law enforcement structures Focus on Youth development – Mayoral approval as a Youth Programme PDP services is in demand by the Tshwane community Ownership is clearly defined (TMPD) and Partner commitment and roles are formalised PDP integrates service delivery across disciplines Aligned with the National Crime Prevention strategy Through capacity building youth gain skills and become responsible citizens PDP supports and reduces workload of TMPD and SAPS Peace Workers become mentors in their community

Opportunities

If crime prevention is recognized as an essential service to the community, and PDP

• perates within that understanding, then it

could become a permanent budget item in the long term The PDP-TMPD model could be recognized in all municipalities, and multiplicated to other Metro Police outside Tshwane PDP could become a potential container for a social crime prevention learnership Requests for extension projects with Municipal budget approval PDP is a project within the Strengthening of Local Governance Programme – part of a larger network Before 2010, more than 1000 CPW’s in Tshwane

Threats

Lack of employment

• pportunities would influence

the pool of applicants Political Climate could influence partnership support and stakeholder commitment Community participation and commitment is essential for project success Management on a volunteer basis is seldom effective

PDP Partnership Opportunities and Threats PDP Partnership Opportunities and Threats

SLGP

• 1. The Project needs to cooperate with mandated structures, and

not with individuals

• 2. PDP partnership needs to be above politics
• 3. Partnerships needs to be formalized in a Memorandum of

understanding/agreement

• 4. Crime prevention through visible patrolling is effective
• 5. Developing youth during a year of volunteer services, increases

their potential for employment by 75 %

• 6. Partnership roles and responsibilities need to be clarified from

the first project phase

• 7. Alignment of monitoring system and crime database is essential
