Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report Launched

October 29th, 1998 26 years ago

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) of South Africa presented its final report, condemning atrocities committed by both the apartheid regime and anti-apartheid groups. Established in 1995, the TRC aimed to address the human rights violations that occurred during apartheid and to promote national healing and reconciliation. Chaired by Archbishop Desmond Tutu, the commission documented testimonies from victims and perpetrators alike, ultimately seeking to establish a narrative for the country moving forward.
