stance against human rights abuses in Zimbabwe. In addition the chapter pressurized the Botswana Parliament to commence engagement with the Zimbabwean government. The Botswana Parliament in fact issued a very strong statement against the crisis in Zimbabwe and called an emergency meeting on the issue in March 2007. A march organized by MISA was also held in Windhoek, Namibia. 2. 7. Training and Capacity Building The greater portion of training and capacity building activities are undertaken in MISA’s Media Support programme. However, Programme B continues to facilitate targeted training that ensures a greater appreciation and understanding of media freedom monitoring, human rights monitoring and reporting. In addition, specialized training that advances MISA advocacy activities are also supported in the programme. 2.7.1 African Governance Media Forum VI MISA partnered with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and Reuters Foundation to host a regional Media Forum on the sidelines of the Sixth Africa Governance Forum (AGF VI) in Kigali, Rwanda from 9-11 May 2006. The Forum was aimed at giving African journalists unique access to the national and regional personalities working to advance the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM) and to information about the successes and challenges faced so far by individual countries. The AGF VI Media Forum brought together African journalists from each of the 25 countries that participated in the AGF VI, as well as regional and international reporters based in Africa. The Media Forum sought to address a key challenge faced by the APRM: ensuring that African journalists understand the significance of the initiative, have access to up-to-date information about its progress and recognize the important role the media can play in educating citizens in the region about the APRM and helping ensure its effective implementation. 22 Annual Report 2006
