The centre, called Emthonjeni (well of knowledge), is a walk-in multi-service centre offering free HIV/Aids education and business skills, particularly to informal traders and taxi drivers.
Born out of a partnership between the Metropolitan Trading Company (MTC), a City of Johannesburg owned company, and the Aurum Institute for Health Research, the centre is in Metro Mall, in Sauer Street, downtown Joburg. It houses a taxi rank and numerous convenience trader stalls servicing thousands of commuters and taxi drivers.
