FWDK Matthew Willman SML

As you know, the FW de Klerk Foundation’s first and foremost objective is to defend and promote the Constitution. On a macro level, the Constitution acts as the cornerstone for the South African society. Acting as an advocacy think tank for the Constitution and its values, the Foundation monitors public and private policy measures, to ensure that these are in line with the Constitution, and points out when they are not.  

Among our instruments to achieve this – through our Centre for Constitutional Rights and Centre for Unity in Diversity –  are:

  • submissions to Parliament and Chapter 9 Institutions;
  • statements and articles (published online and in print);
  • radio and TV interviews;
  • roundtable discussions;
  • conferences and;
  • litigation.
