Quality of Life Survey 2011, Round 2

The Gauteng-City Region Observatory (GCRO) commissioned Data World to conduct its Second Quality of Life Survey in the second half of 2011. The Gauteng City-Region Observatory (GCRO) was established in 2008 as a partnership between the University of Johannesburg (UJ), the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg (Wits) and the Gauteng Provincial Government (GPG), with local government in Gauteng also represented. The objective of the GCRO is to inform and assist the various spheres of the Gauteng government in building and maintaining the province as an integrated and globally competitive region. The Second Quality of Life Survey must comprehensively represent the whole of Gauteng, which consists of 10 municipalities, which in turn covers 508 wards. Data World was contracted to undertake 15000 surveys across this sphere. Among the main aims of the Quality of Life Survey, is to inform the GCRO as well as provincial government and other relevant parties with regards to the perceived states of the municipalities within Gauteng, with focus on the quality of the lives of people who live within these municipalities.
