Our Structure

Stop the Bantustan is a coalition campaign set up to prevent the passage and implementation of the Bantustan Bills: the Traditional Leaders and Khoi-San Leadership Bill (TKLB) and the Traditional Courts Bill (TCB). 

The campaign is made up of an organising secretariat, supporters, and patrons. 

This campaign is supported by organizations and individuals who agree with the aims and values of the campaign. 

While individuals in political parties may support the campaign, they do so in a non-partisan capacity. The campaign has no link to any political party. 

Our patrons and organising committee are led by NGO’s and individuals in the affected geographical areas, with solidarity from all other sectors of South Africa.
