Abstract
This review of the State of the Nation Address (SONA) for 2013,
as delivered by President Jacob Zuma in parliament on 14 February
2013, gauges how government’s priorities for the year will
affect the social, political and economic status of women. It also
measures the advances made with regards to the five priorities
the president set in the 2009 SONA, namely: Decent work,
education, crime, health and rural development and agrarian
reform. It ends with a conclusion stipulating issues of concern
that should be watched out for during the course of 2013.
