Association of Catholic Tertiary Students (ACTS), SOUTH AFRICA

Association of Catholic Tertiary Students (ACTS)

Motto of the Movement
Faith in Action

Year of Foundation 1993      Year of IMCS membership 1993

Brief History
Initially, National Catholic Federation of Students (NCFS) was the only Catholic student body in South Africa, however, this changed when students attending black campuses broke away in the early seventies to form Catholic Students Association (CASA). Consequently, CASA then existed at historically black campuses whereas NCFS existed at historically white campuses.

After a difficult and lengthy process, one association of Catholic students; Association of Catholic Tertiary Students (ACTS) was formed in 1993.

The organisation is Catholic and is guided by the Pastoral Plan of the SACBC to evangelise. Non-Catholics may belong to the organisation but not within the leadership of the organisation. All chairpersons, provincial representatives and national executive members are to be confirmed and practicing Catholics.

As part of the local Church, ACTS is challenged to participate in the development of the local Church by appropriating the pastoral plan of being an evangelising community serving God, humanity and all creation. The organisation should be a vehicle of inculturation whereby faith and African indigenous culture are given space to develop a local Church free from its colonial past.

As a student organisation of young people, ACTS should involve itself in the youth ministry structure of the SACBC and should see itself as a section of the youth that forms part of the youth of the local Church
