South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa recently announced the creation of the International Panel on Inequality (IPI), describing it as an accomplishment of South Africa’s G20 presidency. Ramaphosa called inequality a “threat to human freedoms and economic growth everywhere”. According to a World Bank report, South Africa is the most unequal country in the world.


Professor Armand Bam from Stellenbosch University argues that although the country does not lack capability, it operates within a system that is designed, governed and sustained to produce inequality as an outcome.

To discuss this further, Bam, who is Head of Social Impact and PGDip NPO Leadership Development at Stellenbosch Business School, joins us on the line.
