Human Rights Fund (DHRF) of the United States Embassy. In addition, MISA also trained members of Omaheke Community Radio and Erongo Community Radio in their campaign for community mobilisation. Access to the Internet and content that is relevant to Namibians was given a boost with the establishment of a community radio website supported by the Namibia Democracy Support Centre. The American Cultural Centre and the DHRF provided capacity building for the use of the Internet. The NCRN secured funding to ensure regular updates of audio material uploaded on the website. South Africa With support from the Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA), MISA South Africa worked on a community television handbook with the anticipated date of completion being May 2007. Some delays included problems regarding computer servicing, problems with data capturing and lack of transcriptions, accessing software for the digital voice recorder, transcribing tapes from observation participants and incorporating new information. Swaziland With the support of the Netherlands Institute of Southern Africa (NIZA), MISA Swaziland conducted a critical analysis of the existing broadcasting laws and engaged with government on the broadcasting law review process. In early 2007, the government of Swaziland drafted two bills: the Broadcasting Bill and the Public Broadcasting Corporation Bill. The first bill seeks to open the airwaves by establishing the three-tier system of broadcasting. The latter seeks to transform the existing state broadcasters into public broadcasters; however, the bill focuses on television and not radio. MISA Swaziland provided input on the two bills during the consultation process and was assured that this input will be incorporated. The chapter continued to support community radio initiatives. With financial support from MISA, Lubombo Community Radio (LCR) was able to broadcast for two days in April after being awarded a special license. LCR is one of the three facilities of the Lubombo Community Multimedia Centre. The radio station was established by a group of young people from Siteki and surrounding areas in February 1999 to enable the community to discuss issues affecting them. Tanzania MISA Tanzania continued to raise awareness about the importance of community radio. During various seminars and workshops organised by the chapter, participants were asked to mobilise communities and establish community radio stations. The issue of sustainability, which continued to hinder their establishment, was addressed in May 2006 at a meeting sponsored by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO). The issue also came to the fore during a workshop organised by the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) in Dar es Salaam in December 2006. Another challenge is that the concept of community media is still not widely understood. There is, therefore, a need to create awareness on what constitutes community radio according to the African Charter on Broadcasting. The chapter also continued to lobby government to support community media initiatives. Another activity implemented by the chapter in support of community media was the training of journalists in filming for cultural journalism. A one-week training exercise took place in May 2006 in Dar-es-Salaam, and there has been a noted improvement in video reporting skills as a result. Annual Report 2007 33
