The FW de Klerk Foundation herewith releases its comprehensive assessment of whether parties’ conduct aligns with the Constitution’s values and the Bill of Rights.
Today, the FW de Klerk Foundation made a submission to Parliament on the Draft Marriage Bill 2022.
As we continue to commemorate Women’s Month and the ongoing journey towards gender equality, South Africa is making great strides through two transformative legislative initiatives: the Divorce Act Amendment Bill and the Draft Marriages Act.
According to the Global Gender Gap Report 2023, South Africa stood unchanged from its 20th position in the world in terms of gender equality. The report noted that South Africa had “closed more than 70% of the overall gender gap”, but that it would “take 102 years to close the gender gap”.

SPEECH BY F W DE KLERK TO THE INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S FORUM OF SOUTH AFRICA, SANDTON, 31 JANUARY 2003 RECONCILIATION AND PEACE Ladies,
Few people would disagree with the Employment Equity Act’s goals of “eliminating unfair discrimination in employment” and ensuring equitable access to the economy for all South Africans. We need an open, equitable and non-discriminatory economy.
However, in its pursuit of these goals the EEA has now become a core tool in the ANC’s project to reshape society and the economy according to demographic representivity (DR). The ANC’s objective has long been to ensure that DR is achieved in the private sector to the same degree that it is already a reality in the public sector. As Rob Davis put it in 2012 “We need to make sure that in the country’s economy, control, ownership and leadership are reflective of the demographics of the society in the same way that the political space does.”
Violence against women in South Africa has a long and tragic history.
