The Helen Suzman Foundation Trust (HSF) promotes constitutional democracy, rule of law and human rights in South Africa. In particular, HSF seeks to undertake public interest litigation that safeguards the rights of vulnerable persons who are unable to utilise the ordinary political process in order to do so; to support public advocacy interventions and dialogue that promote public participation and deliberation and so result in informed, reasoned decision-making; and to end impunity for systematic criminal conduct destructive of a constitutional state -- whether for corruption-related crimes or apartheid era atrocities.
