  4. Problem Statement The Municipal Barometer was established in response to the following challenges: • limited availability of local level data. • limited access to data that is currently available • various institutions provide data, however, their activities are often fragmented and uncoordinated • huge costs that municipalities pay to get data The Municipal Barometer is an initiative of South African Local Government Association (SALGA) in partnership with Statistics South Africa (Statssa), South African Cities, Network (SACN), Municipal Demarcation Board (MDB), Centre For Municipal Research, (CMRA), Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA),

  5. OBJECTIVES The Municipal Barometer is anchored on a Local Data Partnership which is aimed at : • Improving municipal governance and performance by improved planning, oversight, benchmarking and peer learning • Identifying and addressing municipal data needs at minimal costs; • Making local level data available to municipalities and their stakeholders; • Managing access to data through a single comprehensive yet simple web-based portal; and • Building the capacity of municipalities to locate, access, interpret and utilize data for planning, budgeting and governance processes.

  6. INDICATORS The following broad outcome indicator themes are proposed: • Demographic trends • Service delivery • Social Development • Economic growth and development • Environment • Municipal finances • Good governance and accountability • Coherent municipal planning • Municipal capacity, (Capacity Building / Human Resources Management / Labour Relations)
