Abstract
The Mini-dissertation begins with a discussion of development aid as a promoter for
good governance and political transformation, which includes the practice of citizen
participation and collaborative governance as tools of governance and political
transformation.
This mini-dissertation proposes the further development of citizen participation and
collaborative governance in South Africa. This is driven by the conviction that more
can be done to enhance the practice of the two concepts in the current democratic
dispensation and moral standing of the country.
The study further gives various perspectives as to how the process of citizen
participation and collaborative governance is already taking place. However the
researcher contends that more can be done to improve the practice of the concepts,
so that all who could be involved in the process get on board.
