SACSIS
The South African Civil Society Information Service (SACSIS), is a social justice news agency that injects progressive commentary into the mainstream media via high-level analysis of important socio-econmic issues in South Africa.
SACSIS seeks to find answers to the question: "How do we make democracy work for the poor?"
You can also find social justice articles on our website - www.sacsis.org.za. We have a team of high-level analysts providing regular commentary on a wide range of issues affecting South Africans and people all over the world.
