The FW de Klerk Foundation annually hosts a conference on 2 February in Cape Town to coincide with the announcement in Parliament in 1990 of the release of Nelson Mandela and other prisoners and the unbanning of several organisations. Each year the conference tackles a topical theme, with input from a diverse range of influential speakers. Previous speakers include former President Kgalema Motlanthe, Justice Albie Sachs, Dr Mathews Phosa, Ms Rhoda Kadalie, Prof Frans Viljoen, Mr Sipho Pityana, Adv Jeremy Gauntlett, Mr Johann Rupert, Dr Christo Wiese, Mr Moeletsi Mbeki, Ms Gwen Ngwenya and former President FW de Klerk, among others.
