At its core, the Constitution is meant to serve those most vulnerable to exclusion: the poor, workers, rural communities, people living next to mines, refineries and industrial zones and those denied healthcare, clean water, decent housing and meaningful participation in decisions affecting their lives. It recognises that without dignity and material justice, freedom would remain incomplete. (Delwyn Verasamy/M&G)
