Welcome to Ditsela Online

Ditsela is the creation of the major trade union federations in South Africa: Cosatu and Fedusa. Its central objective is to help the labour movement build its capacity to be able to respond effectively to the challenges it faces. To achieve this Ditsela runs programmes in education and training and provides support for organisational development. Ditsela Online is our Internet based platform designed to support and extend our current education initiatives.

The Ditsela Workers’ Education Institute is a Section 21 not-for-profit joint venture established in 1996 by COSATU and FEDUSA and supported by the Department of Labour’s Strengthening Civil Society Fund
