ThinkTank is an emporium of sustainable development research and dialogue.
Our thrust is delivering incisive scholarly papers, research driven analysis on political economy plus a wide range of societal affairs of South Africa, Southern Africa, Africa and the world over.
We aim to cultivate an informed, assertive, innovative and active citizenry that moves to the center, every human being's cardinal rights to opportunity, freedom and dignity - through sustainable development.
"Democracy... while it lasts is more bloody than either aristocracy or monarchy. Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There is never a democracy that did not commit suicide." _John Adams
"For me, human rights simply endorse a view of life and a set of moral values that are perfectly clear to an eight-year-old child. A child knows what is fair and isn't fair, and justice derives from that knowledge." _Tom Stoppard
Our Vision is a free and open society where every individual's rights particularly the most vulnerable, (children, women,the poor and the disabled) are upheld in an atmosphere that affords equitable access to resources and opportunities.
Asserting People Centered Governance
Humanitarian response, sustainable development, and sustaining peace are three sides of the same triangle. - Antonio Guterres
