After our amazingly successful session at the Fakugesi festival, the real work begins. We need writers, designers and coders to get work underway in earnest on this project to bring the South African Constitution to life!
#HackTheConstitution is a collaboration between Hacks/Hackers Johannesburg,TEDxJohannesburg and Design, Share, Party, with support from Code4Africa.
To get started, select a language from the list below.
You are encouraged to annotate these pages with information about the Constitution. That can be definitions of legal terms, explanations of clauses, examples of use in case law or your experience of taking an issue to the Constitutional Court.
To add an annotation to the text of the South African Constitution, simply highlight the word or phrase you want to annotate and add text or images in the dialogue that appears.
In order to read existing annotations, just click on a piece of highlighted text.
The text of the Constitution used in these pages has been prepared and released into the public domain by MyConstitution.co.za. To download a print-ready copy of the Constitution in any of the 11 official languages, please visit MyConstitution.co.za.
