We, 78 members   of a wide cross section of faith communities (Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Quakers) representing a large part of South Africa’s population,  gathered in an indaba on “a just energy future”. The sacred texts of all our faiths clearly call for

• the establishment of justice, equity, and the pursuit of peace for people and the planet,
• a just economy that serves all people and
• a sustainable and just energy policy that is sensitive to the priority of the needs of people and the environment for this and future generations.
