Dear Friend of the IRR,

There is a singular overarching goal that any post-election public policy must achieve: vigorous economic growth. The success of everything else, from reducing poverty to reconstructing failing infrastructure to improving race relations, depends upon it.

Economic growth should therefore be the central focus of any political party's election manifesto ahead of the 2024 elections.

Join us tomorrow, Tuesday 21 May, less than two weeks before voting day, for the online launch of two thought-provoking papers from the IRR: Growth Prospects of the African National Congress Manifesto and Growth Prospects of the Democratic Alliance Manifesto.

Ivo Vegter, the author, will share his evaluations of the economic growth potential outlined in the manifestos of South Africa's two leading political parties.

This is a must-attend event for anyone interested in South Africa's future, whether you're a political analyst or an active citizen seeking to make an informed decision at the polls.

Date: Tuesday 21 May 2024
Time: 10:00 - 11:00
Speakers: Ivo Vegter and Nicholas Lorimer

We look forward to seeing you there! If you can't make the live event, the recording will be available on YouTube, and the full paper will be available on our website.

Thank you for supporting us in our fight for policies that will ignite economic growth and improve the lives of all South Africans. Feel free to share this invitation with everyone you know who wants to see South Africa become a freer, more prosperous place.

Live Free. Prosper.
