Ahmed Kathrada Foundation (AKF)

Established in 2008, the Ahmed Kathrada Foundation (AKF) was created to uphold and promote the values embodied by Ahmed Kathrada and his generation of anti-apartheid activists. As an independent and non-partisan organization, the foundation is dedicated to advancing the principles of justice, equality, and non-racialism. Kathrada, a veteran of the liberation struggle, spent 26 years imprisoned on Robben Island alongside his fellow Rivonia Trialists for opposing apartheid. His unwavering dedication to the ideals of a democratic, non-racial South Africa continues to inspire the Foundation’s work today.
