During her prior career as a legal academic, she specialized in labour law, land rights, race and gender equality and constitutional law. She focused on those areas that affected the most vulnerable communities, and through her commitment and dedication improved the quality of many lives. Justice ORegan was born in Liverpool, England and relocated with her family to Cape Town at age seven. She studied at the University of Cape Town from 1975 to 1980 where she obtained a B.A. degree (interrupted by a year as an AFS scholar in Houston, Texas) and a LL.B. (cum laude) degree. She pursued her studies at the University of Sydney where she obtained an LL.M. with first class honours in 1981 and a PhD from the University of London (London School of Economics and Political Science) in 1988. After completing her articles Justice ORegan practiced as an attorney at Bowman Gilfillan-Hayman Godfrey Inc. and Cheadle, Thompson & Haysom Inc. where she specialised in labour law and land rights and acted for trade unions, anti-apartheid organisations and several communities under threat of eviction under apartheid land policy before becoming a senior researcher at the Labour Law Unit of the University of Cape Town in 1988. In 1990 she became a senior lecturer in the Faculty of Law, University of Cape Town and in 1992 was promoted to associate professor. She was a founder member of the University of Cape Towns Law, Race and Gender Research project and the Institute for Development Law where she was employed as a researcher. She advised the African National Congress on land claims legislation and the National Manpower Commission on gender equality law. In 1994, at the young age of 37 she was appointed as a Judge of the Constitutional Court and during 2008 she briefly acted as Deputy Chief Justice during Justice Mosenekes absence. It is perhaps particularly in the areas of the Bill of Rights and that of interpretation where Justice ORegan has left her mark on the living jurisprudence of the Constitutional Court, giving substance to the rights protected in the Bill of Rights. She did so with style and vision. For instance, in her separate judgment in S v Makwanyana she held that . . . the right to life was included in the Constitution not simply to enshrine the right to existence. It is not life as mere organic matter that the Constitution cherishes, but the right to human life: the right to live as a human being, to be part of a broader community, to share in the experience of humanity. This concept of human life is at the centre of our constitutional values. The Constitution seeks to establish a society where the individual value of each member of the community is recognised and treasured. In 2008 she was appointed by Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon as fifth member and chairperson of the Internal Justice Council, established by the General Assembly to help ensure independence, professionalism and accountability in the new system of administration of justice at the United Nations. She has also acted as ad hoc Judge of the Supreme Court of Namibia and is currently a member and President of the International Monetary Fund Administrative Tribunal (2011). Justice ORegan has published numerous peer-reviewed articles, co-edited a book on forced removals and the law entitled No Place to Rest and the IMSSA Arbitration Digest, a digest of labour arbitration decisions. She was one of the authors of A Charter for Social Justice and is an honorary consulting editor of the South African Law Reports since 1997. She serves on the editorial board of many South African legal publications. Justice ORegan has continued to play an important role in legal academia in South Africa and has delivered speeches on many diverse topics. She has been the recipient of several honorary degrees and holds honorary doctorates in law from the Universities of Kwa Zulu-Natal (2001), Cape Town (2004), South Africa (2009), and the London School of Economics and Political Science (2008). She is also professor extraordinarius, department of private law, University of South Africa, visiting and honorary professor, faculty of law, University of Cape Town and visiting professor, faculty of law, University of Oxford. Her honorary positions include honorary bencher, The Honourable Society of Lincolns Inn (2007), and honorary foreign member of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences (2009). She has also received numerous awards and scholarships. Justice ORegans service to her community is evidenced by her membership of various organisations and trusteeships dating back to the early 1980s. She is currently a member of the Board of the Open Society Foundation and trustee of the Constitutional Court Trust, the Equal Rights Trust (an international charitable organisation) and the South African Institute for Advanced Constitutional, Public, Human Rights and International Law Trust. As Constitutional Court Judge she contributed to the high standard of constitutional jurisprudence that South Africans are rightfully proud of and as chairperson of the Justice Council has been entrusted with the responsibility to identify suitable candidates for appointment as judges of the United Nations Dispute and Appeals Tribunals. It is befitting that the 91Ƭ confer an honorary Doctor of Laws on Justice ORegan for her inspirational leadership and in recognition of her commitment to social justice both nationally and internationally.
