South African Pagan Rights Alliance
https://paganrightsalliance.org/
The South African Pagan Rights Alliance (SAPRA) is a paralegal advocacy non-profit company.
* Paralegals (“grassroots barefoot lawyers”) are not legal professionals (Attorneys or Advocates). Paralegal organizations provide basic legal advice to individuals and communities who have no access to, or who cannot afford access to formal legal services.
SAPRA is registered with the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission as a non-profit company (NPC 2018/620182/08), and has been designated, as of 2025, by the South African Revenue Service as a Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) engaged in public benefit activities.
SAPRA offers free, practical assistance on basic legal issues, including social welfare, employment disputes, infringement of and discrimination against personal legal and constitutional rights, and provides referrals to formal legal representation where necessary. We will negotiate and mediate inter-communal conflict, organize community development initiatives aimed at restoring justice, advocate for religious equality and equity, and promote human rights education.
SAPRA also offers a free, annual, 6 month training course to aspirant community paralegals on South African law, mediation, community organisation, human rights advocacy and Paralegal practice in South Africa.
SAPRA is designated as a religious organisation (as of 2008) in terms of section 5 of the Civil Union Act (Act 17 of 2006), and its religious marriage officers solemnise both same-sex and heterosexual marriages.
This Alliance is an Executive Member of the South African Pagan Council (SAPC) and Chair of the SAPC Law Reform Committee.
SAPRA is a participating member of the Witchcraft and Human Rights Information Network (WHRIN).
