The Iswi-Linc Regional Activity Map divides Earth's land surface into a mesh of overlapping circular regions, each 242.54 km in radius, expanding outward from Cape Town, South Africa. The Bakchar region sits at generation 31, approximately 13,534 km from the origin.

Each region is a node in ISWI's decentralised civic network. Online users, verification nodes (Iswi-linc), and scheduled governance events including town halls, conferences, and in-person gatherings are tracked per region in real time.

ISWI is built by Iswi NPC, a 100% Black-owned technology company based in Cape Town. The platform focuses on transparent, geographically anchored civic participation.
