Historical inequalities and economic transformation in South Africa

The African Centre of Excellence for Inequality Research and the French Embassy in South Africa will host this event featuring Wits academics.

Panellists will reflect on the effectiveness of public policies implemented in South Africa to eliminate historical inequalities and improve social mobility, with a particular focus on the productive assets of:
1. Labour: to assess progress in equalising education since 1994, given the current state of the education system and the labour market.
2. Financial capital: to assess both progress in transforming the finance sector, through Broad-based Black Economics Empowerment, and access to finance for all South Africans.
