Phambili, published by the Phambili Collective in Johannesburg, was a short lived publication comprising 3 issues published during 1988 and 1989. The aim of the publication was to stimulate debate and discussion by raising issues facing the democratic movement, thereby increasing the level of political education. Phambili was not designed for mass distribution but questions were posed at the end of articles to stimulate debate at a mass level. Organisations were encouraged to translate and simplify articles for this purpose.
