We are joined by Yanga Malotana, Programme Manager for Project Vote, Emerging Scholars Initiative, University of Pretoria, to discuss the upcoming May 29 elections in South Africa and the critical human rights issues at stake. The 2024 elections pose several essential questions about ensuring a fair, inclusive, and democratic process. We explore key topics such as voter participation, media freedom, protection mechanisms for human rights, and strategies for including marginalized groups. Join us as we unpack these pressing issues and their implications for South Africa's democratic future.
