Resource Hub

Insights, Reports, Learnings

Welcome to the JICP Resources Hub, which brings together a wealth of insights, reports, stories, and media drawn from our work across Johannesburg’s inner city over the last 30 years. It is a central space to explore programmes, access publications, stay informed on news and events, and understand the impact of the JICP’s work — quickly, clearly, and in one place. This hub is particularly valuable for funders, donors, partners, researchers and general readers seeking practical insights and evidence of our impact on inner-city regeneration.

Other programmes and projects

Explore the JICP’s full portfolio of initiatives, programmes and projects, current and historical. From revitalisation efforts to community collaborations, this is where funders, partners, and donors can read about our efforts to drive real change in Johannesburg’s inner city.
