Foreword On the occasion of the tenth anniversary of our Constitution, there can be little argument that the human rights values underpinning our democratic dispensation become increasingly entrenched with the passage of time. The language and message of human rights define critical processes such as law and policy-making; the relationship between citizens and the state; and the relationships among and between citizens and, in many instances, non-citizens. Notwithstanding the fact that they are most often contested, and that differing interpretations of human rights widely exist, more and more of our people have come to rely on and assert their rights. This can only be healthy for our democracy. However, it is also important that as people assert and claim their rights, they accept the responsibilities that come with having rights. The South African Human Rights Commission is one of the institutions with the responsibility of ensuring that human rights remain at the centre of debate and dialogue in the nation; that the lofty provisions in the Bill of Rights are translated into reality for the many who need their protection; and that equality and human dignity are more than legal concepts; values that are internalised and reflected in our relations with each other. An essential part of celebrating our significant achievements as a nation is reflecting seriously on how
we have gone about discharging the Constitutional contract, and, in particular, how we have collectively used the vision of the Constitution as a central vehicle in the transformation of our society. This publication seeks to make a contribution in that process of reflection and assessment. Through the various contributions, we seek to present an overview of the progress made on various fronts and sectors, the interventions that have worked, the unfinished business, and challenges for the future. In all of this we must remain mindful that, even with all that we have achieved, there remain considerable deficits in overcoming the legacy of discrimination and the grinding effects of poverty. The evidence of this confronts us with frequent regularity, and the challenge we face is to ensure that the promise of the Constitution is made good and realised in substantial terms by all our people. We would like to thank all who have contributed to this publication, including the various contributors and the Commissioners and staff of the Human Rights Commission.
