Organisatiegeschiedenis 📅 6 Juli 1987 📍 Senegal

A delegation of 52 mainly Afrikaans-speaking South Africans met ANC leaders in exile in Dakar. The participants included writers, academics, religious figures and business people who opposed or questioned apartheid. The meeting opened a new channel of dialogue across a racial and political divide created by apartheid, while remaining an unofficial initiative rather than a formal negotiation between the ANC and the state.
