IMESA would like to thank everyone who was involved and attended our 86th annual conference in Gqeberha (PE) last month. It would not have been such a resounding success without the valuable contributions and input of our sponsors, exhibitors, speakers, delegates and service providers.

After outsourced publishing of our IMIESA magazine for more than 40 years, the Institute now owns the full rights to publish the magazine inhouse. This will enhance the Institute’s platforms for communication with all industry stakeholders and ensure that the IMIESA magazine continues as the definitive magazine in all areas related to infrastructure engineering.

IMIESA journal promotes the knowledge and practice of infrastructure development, maintenance and service delivery in Southern Africa.

This guideline document for South African municipal engineers was developed through a collaborative effort between the Institute of Municipal Engineering of Southern Africa (IMESA) and the Water Research Commission (WRC) in collaboration with water sector stakeholders represented by the Water Institute of Southern Africa and was officially launched in September 2022. The document should be regarded as presenting a formal consensus position on best practices for implementing water reuse projects within the municipal environment to support the widescale adoption and increased success rate in the implementation of water reuse projects.
