Pinpoint was contracted as a researcher to undertake a literature review and stakeholder interviews to gather insights on green economic activity in South Africa, with a focus on waste and energy. Insights were used to provide guidance on where youth employment opportunities could be realised within a local government green manufacturing context e.g. the production of solar PV technologies.
