The Libertarian Party of South Africa (LiPSA) is a political party in South Africa founded on the principals of libertarianism.[1] The party was officially registered on 26 February 2014,[2] just prior to the 2014 General Election. Due in part to a lack of funds, the Party did not contest the 2014 General Election.[3]

The LiPSA is one of the nine founding members of the International Alliance of Libertarian Parties.
