Mhluzi is a relatively affluent township with 182 000 residents, adjacent to Middelburg in the Steve Tshwete Municipality, Mpumalanga. The province has a diverse economy built around timber, coal mining, agriculture, tourism and oil, but unemployment is evident too.

The community conversation coincided with the monthly queue for government grants, which made it clear that many citizens, young and old, depend on this source of income.
