The MSJ party was part of the People's Partnership alliance for the 2010 general elections, but didn't contest under its own name and has since parted ways.[1][2][3][4]
In October 2012 the MSJ launched a think-tank called the Foundation for Social Justice, which aims to promote ideals of social justice, equity and participatory democracy through seminars, research, publication, advocacy and campaigns.[5]
