Group Village Head Katosa

Group Village Head Katosa champions the village development programme by bringing people together, raising priority needs and building partnerships around projects that can improve everyday life.

Katosa Village falls within the area of Senior Group Village Head Chilamphuma and Senior Group Village Head Kambatuwa. The village leadership also works hand in hand with T/A Kaluluma, placing local initiatives within the area’s wider traditional leadership structures.

The leadership approach puts community participation at the centre - from identifying needs to sustaining what has been built.
