About HSRC PublishersThe Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) of South Africa is a statutory social science research institution the largest in Africa. We play a leading role in the fourteen South African Development Community countries, and elsewhere in Africa.
Our researchers are our most valuable assets, researching identified social problems. Their capacity is extended locally, regionally and internationally through collaboration with peers in other science councils, tertiary institutions and research bodies.
Research is our product. HSRC Publishers is not an end product, but an integral part of our research function. As a non-profit organisation, we ultimately want to circulate our research publications as widely as possible. More about the HSRC ...

The Nelson Mandela/HSRC study of HIV/AIDS published in December 2002, found that 5.6% of children in South Africa between 2 -14 years old were HIV-positive. This was a cause of great concern for the investigators. Now the HSRC has developed a proposal to study these findings in greater depth. The study will investigate the role of the healthcare system, sexual abuse and other non-healthcare related events.
