Taking the Constitution to the People - Elizabeth Matsemela Secondary School, Soshanguve

The Inclusive Society Institute is truly on course with its civic education programme. This programme is aimed at promoting democratic participation, and good responsible citizenry and the values espoused by the Institute.

In its quest to broaden Civic Education, the Institute is engaged in “ Taking the Constitution to the People”, with a view to bringing awareness among the learners about their rights and responsibilities, also to inspire perception about where they can become involved in the civic and public affairs. How they can apply the constitution in their daily lives and why it is important that are responsible for their environment, community and the country at large.

On 30 July 2024, Patrick Morathi conducted a “Taking the constitution to the people” workshop at Elizabeth Matsemela Secondary School in Soshanguve. The Grade 11 learners were the target group, they enjoyed and openly welcomed the workshop with its relevant workshop contents and materials that were distributed to the learners. This programme will be rolled out across the Gauteng Province Secondary Schools to foster an appreciation for the Constitution and everything that it entails.
