It is evident from the wave of protests that have erupted in municipalities across the country over the last few months that many South Africans are angry and frustrated at the non-delivery of basic services.

DA leader Helen Zille will be touring the country along with local and provincial DA public representatives to listen to the concerns of South Africans, to discuss their problems and how a DA government would be able to work towards finding solutions to those problems.

We will document what we find on our visits on this page by posting Helen Zille’s speeches and updates, and photos of the things we see and the people we meet.

The DA's vision of an Open, Opportunity Society for All rests on our belief that every South African deserves to live in dignity and should have access to the services they require in order for them to improve their lives and attain their goals.
