VORIOSA

THE VOTING RIGHTS ORGANISATION OF SOUTH AFRICA

what is voriosa

 

The Voting Rights Organisation of South Africa (VORIOSA) is a non-profit organisation established in May 2016 and committed to providing a platform for patriots to help and defend the poor and the vulnerable when their socio-economic rights are infringed.  

 

Voriosa wants to popularise the Bill of Rights in order to contribute to making South Africa a better place for all to live in it. VORIOSA is thus established to specifically provide awareness and to educate the communities or citizens about their voting and socio-economic rights by making use of seminars, workshops, meetings, lectures and presentations.

VORIOSA believes that people must be educated about the link and the significance of voting in elections and how such participation in forming a government contributes to enabling them to enjoy and exercise those socio-economic rights.

OUR Philosophy

 

  • We are apolitical and a civic movement that is not alligned to any political party.

  • Every person can join as a Patriot as long as he/she does not hold a position in a political party or is not an office bearer in a political party.

  • Each Patriot is an organizer, a strategist and a volunteer who aspire to assist the poor and the most vulnerable.

  • We lobby and/or persuade government and its officials to resolve communities' issues promptly.  

  • We strive to attract influential community leaders to lead our delegations.

  • We comment on issues affecting ordinary people.

  • We are opposed to violent protests accompanied with burning and looting of property.

  • We support and complement the work of the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC), the South African Human Rights Commission (SAHRC) and the Public Protector.
