The Organic Humanity Movement (OHM) is a South African political party founded by Lauren Evanthia Bernardo at the end of 2017, after three years of involvement in politics and local government.

The party focuses on individual liberties and intends to change the constitution to abolish political parties, permitting only individuals to stand, each paying their own election deposit and collecting the required number of signatures.{{Cite web |title=Say goodbye to political parties: OHM's revolutionary approach to governance |url=https://www.msn.com/en-za/news/other/say-goodbye-to-political-parties-ohm-s-revolutionary-approach-to-governance/ar-BB1mQhhH |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=www.msn.com}}{{Cite web |last=Bauer |first=Charlotte |title= Diary of a Semigrant: Election eve mayhem and SA's zaniest political party |url=https://www.news24.com/life/topstories/news/charlotte-bauer-diary-of-a-semigrant-election-eve-mayhem-and-sas-zaniest-political-party-20240528 |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=News24 |language=en-US}}{{Cite web |last=Haffajee |first=Ferial |date=2024-05-27 |title=Organic Humanity Movement wants to scrap politics as we know it |url=https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2024-05-27-organic-humanity-movement-wants-to-scrap-politics-as-we-know-it/ |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=Daily Maverick |language=en}} It encourages gun ownership, describing attempts to reduce guns as "in line with the United Nations Agenda 21".https://www.ohm.org.za/gallery/CRIME.pdf It is supportive of homeschooling, and is against the state teaching of sexuality and gender.https://www.ohm.org.za/gallery/BELA%20Bill,%20CSE%20and%20ECE.pdf It describes itself as supportive of parents and says that "The minister of Basic Education declared war on our children when she said that children are a government’s responsibility.
