INTERNAL ENGAGEMENT ON THE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT CODE
Following the approval of the Spatial Development Code, as part of the rollout strategy, DTCP project team hosted an internal engagement session to help staff understand this essential national framework.
The session gave officers the opportunity to ask questions, seek clarity, and see how the Code applies to them, not only in their professional work but also in their everyday lives as citizens.
This engagement highlights DTCP’s commitment to ensuring that everyone is well-informed and personally connected to the Code’s purpose of promoting sustainable and well-planned development across Botswana.
