Freedom of Religion SA PLC (FORSA)

FOR SA (Freedom of Religion South Africa) is a legal advocacy organisation working to protect and promote the constitutional right to religious freedom in South Africa. We do this by engaging with government on policies, and making submissions to Parliament on draft legislation, that may negatively impact on religious freedom. We also appear – as a “friend of the court” or principal party – before government commissions and the Courts (including the Constitutional Court) in cases affecting religious freedom.

For many people of faith, the laws and policies that are proposed increasingly make the State (rather than the sacred tenets of their faith) the highest authority on what they should believe, These can even overrule they believe they should express or act according to their beliefs. Many of these laws subscribe to a secular liberalist world-view and as such, are in direct conflict with faith and family values.

Our motto is "For Faith & Freedom!"
