Agreement

674-0301-G-SS-2016-00

I.

Problem:

Your

approval

is

required

to

obligate

U.S.

$155,000

of

FY1992

funds

under

the

COLD

Project

(674-0301)

through

a

grant

agreement

with

the

Community

Law

Center,

which

is

physically

located

at

the

University

of

Western

Cape,

as

described

herein.

II.

Authority: Pursuant

to

Redelegation

of

Authority

No. 452,

the

Director,

USAID/SA,

has

authority

to

authorize

and

execute

grants

with

indigenous

non-governmental

organizations

(NGOs)

in

an

amount

not

to

$5

I:.

Discussion:

The

purpose

of

this

Agreement

is

to

assist

the

Recipient

in

its

efforts

to

develop

and

implement

a

regional

program

designed

to

empower

disadvantaged

South

Africans

through

education

about

civil

and

human

rights.

For

many

years,

blacks

in

South

Africa

have

been

subjected

to

all

types

of

abuses

by

the

regime.

Civil

and

political

rights

of

blacks

were

not

respected

and

the

law

was

unequally

applied

and

completely

biased

against

blacks.

At

present,

some

political

and

legal

changes

are

taking

place.

However,

these

changes

can

sometimes

move

very

quickly

PROGRAM

DESCRIPTION

I.

PURPOSE

The

purpose

of

this Agreement

is

to

assist the

Recipient

to

develop

and

implement

a

regional

program

designed

to

empower

disadvantaged

South

Africans

through

education about

civil

and

human

rights.

II.

BACKGROUND

The

majority

of South Africans

have

had

little

opportunity

to

participate

and

communicate

in

the

structure

of

their society,

much

less

play

an

active

role

in

its

government.

As

a

direct

result, ordinary person,

no

matter

what their

previous

racial

classification

were, have

a

very

limited

understanding

of

the

purpose

of

a

Constitution

and

Bill

of

Rights

within

a

democratic

society,

much

less

the

practical

applications

of

these

principles

in

daily

life.

The

adoption

of

a

Bill

of

Rights

does

not

automatically

include acceptance

and

adoption

of

the

underlying

values

by

the

average

citizen.

Througbout

South

Africa,

respect

for

the

law

and

a

just,

humane

legal

system

must

be

re-established

to

ensure

of

non-violent

society.

GOALS

1.

To conduct primary

and

secondary research

about

the

general populace's

awareness

and

understanding

of

human rights.

2.

To produce user-friendly

instructional materials

about

basic

human

rights

and

the

corresponding

obligations

for

use

in

schools

and

communities.

3.

To

disseminate

these

materials

to

C.

IMPLEMENTATION

The

development

of

a

human

rights

ethos

is

essential

if

true

democracy

is

to

take

root

in

South

Africa.

The

implementation

of

this

human

rights

education

program

can

(and

must)

be

undertaken

immediately

to

ensure

that,

as

far

as

possible,

the

people

are

at

the

center

of

the

process

during

the

adoption and

implementation

of

a

Bill

of

Rights.

Individuals

should

be

able

to

operate

from

an

informed base

of

personal

information

so

that their

opinions

and

experiences

are

given

serious

consideration.

Though

a

democratic

Constitution

and

Bill

of

Rights have

their

roles,

the

in

which people

alter

is y

Additionally,

both

students

and adults,

many

of

whom

were

simply

passive

or

reactionary

when

confronted

with

a

legal

problem,

have

now

become empowered

by

the

knowledge

of

their

rights under

the

law.

Because

of

the

enthusiastic

and

widespread

adoption

and

growing

demand

of

such

an

interactive

educational mechanism,

the

Street

Law

program

is

now

being expanded

beyond

the schools

and

into

the

community.

Spreading

of

human

rights awareness

on

a

societal

level

can best

be

accomplished

through

the

same

dynamic

educational

methods.

Although

traditional

lectures

will

continue

to

be

a

part

of

the

Street

Law

Human

Rights

Education

Program,

the

implementation

of

more proactive

means

of

educational

methods

via

advertising

campaigns,

artistic

competitions,

film

festivals,

street

theatre, musical

presentations

and

concerts,

publications

and camps will ensure

that South

Africans

not

only

become

aware

of

their

civil

and

human

rights

(and

thus

empowered

by

their

human

rights),

but enjoy

learning

about

them

as

well!

During

1992,

Street

Law

will

devote

its

attention

to

the

development

and

implementation

of

the

Human

Rights

Program.

The

program

will

be

organized

and

overseen

by

the

current

Regional

Coordinator. A

full-time

Program

Director

will

be

trained

to

help

the

Fegional Coordinator

in

the

development

and

implementation

of

the

program.

Part-time

In

individual

who

is

unable

to

express

his

message

through

words

can

reach

thousands

of

people

through

the

international language

of art or

The

following

campaigns

will

encourage

active participation

by,

and

raise

the

self-esteem

of,

the

"artists," while

simultaneously

demonstrating

that human

rights

is

a

concept

that

must

be

encouraged

beyond

the

doors

of

the

judiciary. This

will

be

accomplished

through

the

following

methods:

(i).

Art

Festival

and

Competition

-

Both

amateur

artists

and

students

throughout

the

Western

Cape

region

will

be

invited

to

participate

in

an

artistic

competition.

Entries

can

be

in

any

medium,

but

must

convey

some

type

of

human

rights

message.

All

entries

will

be

displayed

at

a

regional

museum

or

civic

center. Awards will

be

given

based

upon

the

decision

of

a

panel

of

judges

from

both

the

art and

human

rights

fields.

Prize-winning

works

will

be

used

by the

Street

Law program

in

the

Advertising

Campaign

and

winners will receive monetary

awards.

The

exhibition

will

then

be

displayed

throughout

South

Africa

in

commercial

and

civic

centers,

galleries

and

museums.

(ii).

Film

-

An

annual

human

will

be

held

featuring

internationally recognized

movies

which

convey

the

message

of

The creation

and

of

for

and

of

the

will

continue

only

if

the

facilitators

of

the

Street

Law program

are

actively

engaged

in

the research

and

publication

of

new

developments

in

the

human

rights

arena.

Because

of

the importance

of

the

linkage between

this

area

of

the

program

and

all

other sub-programs,

a

resource

library

is

vital to

the

effective

operation

of

Street

Law.

Standard

human

rights

texts,

statutes,

law

reports,

and

international

and

local

human

journals

and

video

tapes

will

be

acquired

for

a

resource

center.

Street Law

program's

facilitators

will then

translate

this

information

into

simple

"street

language."

These

materials

will

ensure that

even

individuals

with minimal

formal education

will

be

able

to

read

and understand

basic

concepts

of

human
