South African Liberal Students' Association

South African Liberal Students' Association

The South African Liberal Students' Association (SALSA) was founded in 1993. SALSA is descendent of the South African Liberal Association (SALA) (1936 - 1968); which was the first non-racial political organisation in South Africa. SALSA is an independent student organisation which believes in, practices and promotes the principles of liberal democracy.

Activities

SALSA is actively engaged in helping liberal students to grow and develop to their full potential, by providing opportunities for liberal students to participate in leadership training and academic support programs. In addition, SALSA also assists liberal students to enhance their career and life development, as well ensuring that the highly successful SALSA Alumni are kept informed and well connected to the liberal students of today.

Networks

SALSA is a founding member of the Organisation of African Liberal Youth (OALY) and is a Full Member of the International Federation of Liberal Youth (IFLRY). In the spirit of global peace and intercultural learning, SALSA has made the training and support programs available to all of its partner Liberal Youth and Student Organisations, throughout the world.
