There are many possible audiences for Soweto Stories:
v The Sowetan community members need tools to document their lives for their children.

Tourism and culture is a growing segment of the South African economy. Soweto is the third most visited tourist site in South Africa, indicating that people honor its history and want to know more about the people there.
