Abstract: |
The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) convened a special hearing on the health sector on 17-18 June 1997. This hearing fell within the broad framework of the TRC of documenting past human rights violations and making recommendations for the future of human rights within health care. Subsequently, the Reparations and Rehabilitation Committee of the TRC also convened a special hearing on the mental health needs of victims and survivors of human rights abuses. |
