|This painting expresses the transformation Nelson Mandela brought to South Africa | | |

| | | |

|Many of you doing this ABET course will have experienced first-hand the changes that took place in South Africa in the early 1990s.The | | |

|changes to society have been so enormous and far reaching that usually they are referred to collectively as the transformation of South | | |

|Africa. Since 1994 South Africa has been transformed from a state ruled by racism and division to a democracy. | | |

| | | |

|You may have taken an active part in the struggle to bring about one of the greatest political and social changes of the century. But | | |

|whatever part you played, you will realise that change does not just happen. It is brought about by human beings responding to certain | | |

|conditions that they are dissatisfied with. Let us explore change, the features and types of change and how we can manage it so that it is | | |

|good of our society. | | |
