SRSA has (naturally so) a whole host of projects on the go during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. While many staff are deployed to help at stadia, a few are at the International Football Village at the Birchwood Hotel in Boksburg (here are a few photos of SRSA’s presence there). The Village is a combination fan park and hospitality village featuring big screens, food and drink, and many arts and crafts stalls where SRSA has an exhibition space and on-going activities in partnership with the German development agency GTZ. The department is also using the Village as a reception area for VIPs and location where media conferences are held (see this report on a press conference held by the Minister).

Here’s Kelly Mkhonto explaining what SRSA’s participation is about:
