Historia biográfica
The collection comprises the complete set of "Iphepha Ndaba", the official newsletter of the Khulumani Western Cape Support Group for Survivors of Violence and Torture, covering the period March 1999 to August 2003. The newsletters are minutes if meetings that had been called by the Trauma Centre for the Survivors of Violence and Torture for ex-political prisoners and survivors of apartheid-related human rights abuses. The Trauma Centre constituted these meetings to assist victims, some of whom had testifies at the Human Rights Violations (HRV) hearings of the TRC, to break through the isolation that resulted from their various experiences of trauma. The meetings also served to aid the victims to cope with the particular difficulty of their expectations regarding their victim status not being adequately or appropriately met by the post-apartheid government. It was decided that the meetings would take the form of healing story-telling sessions at which schooled counsellors would assist the victims and survivors. The languages employed by the victims and counsellors are IsiXhosa and English. The collection also documents the views of victims with regard to the stance of Government on the issue of reparations.

Materials collected from TRC Archival Audit.
The TRC Archival Audit
Between 2003 and 2006, SAHA and Historical Papers, University of Witwatersrand embarked on a project to locate, retrieve and make available records relating to the South African Truth and Reconciliation Committee (TRC). The project entailed conducting an archival audit of all existing TRC records in order to identify and locate documentation in danger of being lost.
In the process of conducting the archival audit, SAHA and HP located many collections from individuals and organizations that participated in the TRC process, including this collection. Selections from these materials as well as TRC related material found in the freedom of Information Collection and other pre-existing SAHA and HP collections, were digitized and can be accessed online at http://truth.wwl.wits.ac.za/
A guide to archival resources relating to South African Truth and Reconciliation Commission can also be found at http://www.saha.org.za/pdf/trc_directory.pdf
