Highlights

The Centre for the Constitutional Transformation of South Africa provides an objective audio-visual presentation of South Africa’s constitutional transformation by recognising all key players and influences.

OVERVIEW

“The Foundation will do everything it can to preserve and promote the heritage of our negotiated transition from the injustices of minority racial domination to the vision of constitutional justice and freedom in our constitution. This was not a victory for this party or that party. It was a victory for us all. All of us played indispensable roles in achieving what was the most remarkable accomplishment in our long and troubled history.”

Did you know

At the 20th Anniversary of the FW de Klerk Foundation, President FW de Klerk spoke about the Foundation’s goal to create the CCTSA. He said, “In addition to the attention that we have traditionally given to upholding the Constitution and to promoting positive relations between communities, we have now adopted a third goal: it will be to preserve, communicate and celebrate the memory of the great constitutional transformation process that gave birth to – and provided the foundation for – our new society. To this end we plan to acquire our own building that will provide the home for a documentation and education centre for the remembrance of our constitutional transformation process. We shall start this venture modestly – but we hope that with time it will grow into an institution worthy of the commemoration of the greatest success that all the people of South Africa have ever achieved.”
This vision came to life with the launch of our exhibition in November 2021.
