Affiliations to other Secular Organisations

SASS takes pride in our strong network of affiliations with various secular interest groups, both locally and internationally. 

We believe in the collective power of collaboration to advance the cause of secularism and create meaningful change in society. These affiliations provide a platform for mutual support, knowledge sharing, and the exchange of ideas. We actively support and endorse our affiliated groups, recognising the invaluable work they do in driving positive impact and promoting secular values.

OGOD​

OGOD won a landmark case in South Africa in 2017. They have levelled the playing field for all religions in public schools. No longer may one religion be promoted above another in the South African public schools. Hans Pietersen, founder of OGOD, won the SASS 2017 “Secular person of the year” award.

Nuwe Hervorming Netwerk

Ons is ‘n netwerk van kreatiewe denkers wat vrylik gesels oor ons soeke na sin, mekaar met idees stimuleer en inspireer en hierdie lewe in die ‘nou’ as ‘n kosbaarheid uitleef. Hier gesels ons graag, maar ons luister ook graag na mekaar. Dit bring mee dat enigiemand sy of haar lewensvraagstukke in ‘n veilige omgewing kan deel.
