The Southern Africa Development, Research and Training Institute, known as The SADRAT INSTITUTE, a non-profit, non-governmental developmental organisation registered with the South African National Department of Social Development

The SADRAT Institute developed out of a grassroots need to have a support institution whose mission is to provide an institutional framework to development practitioners so that, like skillful physicians, they can apply their experience in a relevant and meaningful way. Each practitioner retains their independent status while maintaining their membership in the Institute.

In September 1999, the Institute was registered as a section 21, non-profit, non-governmental organisation.

The official office of the Institute was established in Port Elizabeth, South Africa.
