The origins of the Moral Regeneration Movement (MRM) date back to a meeting between then-president Nelson Mandela and key South African religious leaders in June 1997. At that meeting, Mandela spoke about the role of religion in nation-building and social transformation, and the need for religious institutions to work with the state. He also described the ‘spiritual malaise’ underpinning the crime problem.
The MRM board consists of men and women who are distinctive, yet ordinary citizens of the country. Together they embody the nature of our ideal character of becoming exemplary through words and deeds. They are the role models of our society to share their personal experiences and professional competences to ensure that the organization’s direction is value driven and all its activities are geared towards achieving the stated vision and objectives.
