“A majority of South Africans believe race relations have stayed the same or deteriorated since 1994.” - 2015 SA Reconciliation Barometer Survey.

The Institute for Justice and Reconciliation (IJR) invites you to the first in a series of releases of selected findings from the 2015 SA Reconciliation Barometer (SARB) Survey on national reconciliation, nation-building and race relations. The survey, the only of its kind in the country that measures South Africans’ attitudes towards national unity and reconciliation, was conducted amongst a nationally representative sample of South Africans during August and September this year in the period preceding and partially overlapping with country-wide student protests. Containing hard-hitting findings, raising both hope and concern, the briefing will provide insights on where the country finds itself on the road to national reconciliation, a weak ahead of the Day of National Reconciliation on the 16th of December.
