Recently, a group of NGOs have been meeting to 'think-tank' the concept of Victim-Offender Mediation (VOM) as a practical link to assist the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) to deal with the process of reconciliation. This consortium of NGOs was convened by Centre of Study of Violence and Reconciliation and the Letsema Conflict Transformation Resource of Wilgespruit Fellowship Centre. This paper gives a brief overview of the VOM concept, a proposed structure for Survivor-Offender Mediation in the South African TRC context, and some suggestions regarding the way forward.

This paper is concerned with the seemingly imminent issue of legislation to establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission in South Africa, and with the related controversial issues of indemnification of past human rights perpetrators and public access to information relating to these abuses during the apartheid era, as well as during the subsequent negotiation period.
