The KZNSA Gallery is excited to announce its upcoming exhibition titled groundWork: 25 Years of Activism for Environmental Justice.

In celebration of 25 years since its inception in 1999, groundWork, Friends of the Earth South Africa has undertaken an archival exhibition to give expression to and share their legacy. Over this past quarter century, their resistance to environmental injustices whether driven by governments or multinational corporations has remained unflinching, whether on the fence lines of struggle at home, across the continent of Africa or through global movements. They stand firm in the struggle for an inclusive, free, fair and just society.
