for freedom
The decisions of those in power directly impact the lives of all South Africans.
Government decisions can grow opportunity or smother it. They can create wealth or destroy it. They can expand freedom or erode it.
The IRR holds those in power accountable. We fight against bad decisions. We promote solutions that make life in South Africa better for all.

The “Employment Equity” Bill will allow a Minister to set race quotas across the private sector, enforceable by multimillion rand fines, if it is allowed to become law.
We conduct research, promote policy solutions, and fight for freedom, equality of opportunity, and the rights of every individual.
We stand for classical liberalism - an effective way to defeat poverty and tyranny through a system of limited government, a market economy, private enterprise, freedom of speech, individual liberty, property rights, and the rule of law.
We are proud to carry on the IRR’s legacy of high-quality research. Our SA Survey (published annually since 1948) provides comprehensive data on all aspects of SA society. Our books, reports, policy papers, and parliamentary submissions offer in-depth analysis of South Africa's challenges and practical, pro-freedom solutions.
