MISTRA assisted the City of Johannesburg with the identification of the priorities for the coming year by tracing back the various commitments made in the Growth and Development Strategy, the IDP, as well as in the State of the City Addresses of the Executive Mayor, the reports provided at the Lekgotla by the clusters, and other inputs. After having gone through the process, MISTRA made some recommendations towards economic transformation, issues of governance and helped identify priority programmes.
