Die FW de Klerk Stigting neem met diepe hartseer kennis van die afsterwe<\/a> van Steven Gruzd en betuig sy opregte meegevoel aan sy familie, vriende, kollegas by die Suid-Afrikaanse Instituut vir Internasionale Sake (\u201cSAIIA\u201d), asook die bre\u00ebr Suid-Afrikaanse en Afrika-beleidsgemeenskap.<\/p>

Steven Gruzd is wyd erken as een van Suid-Afrika se voorste denkers op die gebied van internasionale betrekkinge en as \u2019n beginselvaste voorstander van goeie regering, aanspreeklikheid en demokrasie regoor Afrika. As hoof van SAIIA se Afrika-Governance en Diplomatie-program<\/a> het hy \u2019n betekenisvolle bydrae tot die openbare lewe gelewer deur deeglike navorsing, deurdagte ontleding en \u2019n volgehoue verbintenis tot die versterking van demokratiese instellings op die vasteland.<\/p>

Sy werk oor die Afrika-ewekniebeoordelingsmeganisme, Afrika-regering en Suid-Afrika se buitelandse beleid<\/a> het hom wye respek in akademiese, diplomatieke en beleidskringe besorg. Hy het oor \u2019n seldsame vermo\u00eb beskik om duidelikheid te bring in komplekse internasionale ontwikkelinge en om die openbare debat te verryk deur insig, balans en integriteit.<\/p>

Die Stigting was bevoorreg om in 2023 met Steven op sy Constitution@Work-platform in gesprek te tree, waar hy bygedra het tot \u2019n belangrike bespreking oor Suid-Afrika se buitelandse beleid en die implikasies daarvan vir internasionale betrekkinge. Hy het in di\u00e9 gesprek die eienskappe beliggaam wat sy openbare betrokkenheid gekenmerk het: intellektuele erns, ruimhartigheid en \u2019n diep respek vir beginselvaste dialoog.<\/p>

Christo van der Rheede, Uitvoerende Direkteur van die FW de Klerk Stigting, het ges\u00ea: \u201cSteven Gruzd was \u2019n uitnemende geleerde en \u2019n man van stille beginselvastheid. Hy het Suid-Afrika se openbare diskoers verryk deur sy intellek, sy integriteit en sy onwrikbare geloof in die waarde van demokratiese regering. Sy tragiese heengaan is \u2019n groot verlies vir die land en die vasteland.\u201d<\/em><\/p>

Ismail Joosub, Bestuurder van Grondwetlike Bevordering by die Stigting, het ges\u00ea: \u201cSteven se stem het insig en waardigheid weerspie\u00ebl. Hy het getoon dat diepgaande idees met nederigheid oorgedra kan word, en dat oortuiging nie ten koste van beskaafdheid hoef te geskied nie. Sy bydrae tot demokratiese denke en openbare begrip sal lank voortleef<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>

Die omstandighede rondom Steven se dood is diep ontstellend. Ons vertrou dat die reg sy volle loop sal neem en dat diegene wat verantwoordelik is, tot verantwoording geroep sal word.<\/p>

Steven Gruzd sal onthou word as \u2019n geleerde, ontleder en openbare denker wie se werk die saak van demokratiese regering in Afrika versterk het.<\/p>

Mag sy nagedagtenis tot se\u00ebn wees.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t

Die Plaaslike Regering-verslagkaart 2026 bied ‘n onafhanklike beoordeling van 50 munisipaliteite in al nege provinsies en meet prestasie aan die hand van vyf pilare van grondwetlike plaaslike regering. Die bevindings toon ‘n skerp ongelyke prentjie, waar sterk institusionele leierskap en gesonde finansi\u00eble bestuur deurgaans met beter dienslewering en openbare verantwoordbaarheid verband hou. Deur duidelike bewyse te verskaf van wat werk, wat misluk en waar verbetering moontlik is, help die Verslagkaart inwoners, raadslede en beleidmakers om praktiese en meetbare verandering te eis.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tRead More \u00bb\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t

Die Plaaslike Regering-verslagkaart 2026 van die FW de Klerk Stigting voer aan dat munisipale mislukking nie onafwendbaar is nie, maar die gevolg is van identifiseerbare institusionele tekortkominge wat gemeet en reggestel kan word. Deur 50 munisipaliteite aan 100 objektiewe maatstawwe te toets, wys die verslag waar plaaslike regering verbeter, waar dit agteruitgaan en wat goed presterende munisipaliteite van swak presterendes onderskei. Dit bied praktiese, bewysgegronde aanbevelings om grondwetlike regering te versterk, dienslewering te verbeter en munisipale herstel meetbaar te maak.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tRead More \u00bb\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t

Die FW de Klerk Stigting se Plaaslike Regering-verslagkaart 2026 bied \u2019n onafhanklike, niepartydige beoordeling van munisipale prestasie en grondwetlike aanspreeklikheid regoor Suid-Afrika. Deur 100 gepubliseerde maatstawwe oor vyf kernpilare toe te pas, evalueer dit 50 munisipaliteite en wys dit op die institusionele faktore wat sukses of mislukking in plaaslike regering bepaal. Die verslag bied bewysgegronde insigte oor die toestand van munisipale bestuur en toon dat doeltreffende, grondwetlike plaaslike regering haalbaar is.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\tRead More \u00bb\t\t<\/a>\n\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/article>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
