Our GNU Performance Tracker is a comprehensive index designed to monitor and hold accountable South Africa’s Government of National Unity (GNU). The tracker is aligned with ActionSA’s core values and vision for an inclusive, prosperous, and secure nation.
Each metric in the tracker is measured against a predetermined ActionSA benchmark, informed by government targets, international best practice, and ActionSA policy recommendations. The tracker will be updated regularly, empowering citizens to see where their government is succeeding and where it is falling short.
ActionSA welcomes the arrest of a suspect in the heartbreaking murder of 11-year-old Jayden-Lee Meek. While no arrest can undo the pain of his loss, it marks a vital step toward justice for his family and community.

Remarks by ActionSA Parliamentary Chief Whip, Lerato Ngobeni MP, during the Defence Department Budget Debate in the National Assembly.
South African income inequality is amongst the highest in the world. Half of South Africa’s adult population lives below the poverty line, 39.7% of working-age South Africans are without employment, and only four out of ten South Africans under 35 are employed. This, in no uncertain terms, is a national crisis and urgent action is non-negotiable.
The architects of Apartheid reprehensibly constructed the classification of people into race groups, and the legacy of that racial classification remains a significant determinant in an individual’s economic and social prospects in South Africa today.
South Africa remains one of the most unequal countries in the world. The post-democratic government has not only failed to address the painful legacy of our past, but has in fact deepened inequality.
