I’m impressed with The Center’s ability to translate information from many sources in a way that can be trusted. They have succeeded both in establishing a reputation as thought leaders, and in creating an entity that stimulates debate. It’s crucial to us that they are part of a university. That gives validity to their independent thinking. And proves they’re not in anyone’s pocket. -Dr. Derick de Jongh, Director of Centre for Corporate Citizenship, University of South Africa
