This is an archive of the Treatment Action Campaign's public documents from December 1998 until October 2008. I created this website because the TAC's website appears unmaintained and people were concerned that it
was becoming increasingly hard to find important documents.

The menu items have been slightly edited and a new stylesheet applied to the site. But none of the documents have been edited, not even for minor errors. The text appears on this site as obtained from the Internet Archive.

The period covered by the archive encompassed the campaign for HIV medicines, the civil disobedience campaigns, the Competition Commission complaints, the 2008 xenophobic violence and the PMTCT, Khayelitsha health workers and Matthias Rath court cases.

Anti Xenophobia March June 2

I think you are doing a fantastic & vital job but I am indeed frustrated that this March is beginning at 10am. The timing excludes those among us who support you but have day jobs and also I would have welcomed the opportunity to bring my children to show them the role and importance of civic society and why one should stand up and be counted for what one believes in. As a result both TAC & the refugees/displaced people will have fewer supporters with you in person today.

March time

Sorry about that. It is always tricky timing the ideal time for a march. We had to get the Soetwater displaced people to the march and the camp is very far away. If we had it after work hours, it would not have been safe for them to go back to the camp in the dark.

Xenophobia in SA

I do hope that the recent xenophobic attacks in South Africa result in a change for the better and that South Africa becomes what people have hoped it would become for many years - a true rainbow nation.

Well done for being a part of this change!
