Access to Justice | South Africa marks 30 Years of the Constitution
Delegates are examining whether South Africans can fully realise the constitutional promise of equality, dignity and freedom through meaningful access to justice.
Thirty years after South Africa adopted its Constitution, delegates say the real test is whether ordinary citizens can access justice in practice.
Judge Tomoko Akane, president of the International Criminal Court says, “Constitutions and treaties do not defend themselves. They live through the institution that upholds them and through the people who believe in them.”
