On 18 November 1993, South Africa's Black and White leaders made history by unanimously approving a new democratic constitution, paving the way for the end of apartheid and the country's first multiracial elections in 1994.
This landmark decision established a framework for a government rooted in equality, human rights, and the dismantling of decades-long institutionalised racial segregation and discrimination.
The consensus reached was a testament to the determination and collaborative spirit of leaders, such as Nelson Mandela and FW de Klerk, who sought to transform South Africa into a free and fair society for all citizens, irrespective of race.
