We had the pleasure of hosting the transformative workshop and moderated webinar featuring an Outside Broadcast and dialogue at ConHill in partnership with Kagiso Trust

This initiative aims to strengthen civic awareness and foster meaningful participation in democratic processes—focusing on empowering communities that face barriers to accessing information, engaging public institutions, and holding leaders accountable.

What if an exhibition could take you from the past, through progress, and into the future? We had the honour of Launching the Zero is greater exhibition in partnership with the Gates Foundation on the 17th of October 2026.

Explore the four-phased journey of Zero is Greater, a new exhibition on view until 13 November 2026 at Constitution Hill.

Visitors will encountered and will encounter  “80,000 Futures,” a participatory installation that asks us to look beyond statistics and remember the people, families, and futures behind the HIV and TB statistics.

From there, “Progress” explores decades of advances in science, treatment, and prevention  and the activists, healthcare workers, researchers, communities and others who helped make that progress possible.

“Possibility” asks how much further we can go.

And “Imagination” leaves us with an open-ended question: What could become possible if HIV and TB no longer shaped so many lives?

You just had to be there!

The energy, the love, the pure magic—The Village and The Other Village People showed out in full force this past Sunday at Constitution Hill!

A massive thank you to everyone who came through to turn up the love, dance, and celebrate with us across all our joint Pride activations and festivities. You made the Hill unforgettable!

Constitution Hill is proud to partner in the Bridges of Conscience Across Continents exhibition—a powerful celebration of courage, shared history, and solidarity connecting South Africa and Italy.

The exhibition spotlights three remarkable figures whose lives built lasting international bonds: OR Tambo, Giuseppe Soncini, and Dina Forti.
