Celebrating 25 Years: The Constitution
The 25-year anniversary of our Constitution reminds us that it is our actions that give power to the promises and fundamental rights enshrined in this vital document.
In his 2022 State of the Nation Address (SONA), President Cyril Ramaphosa outlined a programme of action to unite government, business, labour and communities behind the shared goal of ensuring that the constitutional rights of all South Africans are realised – leaving no one behind.
