Preamble

The cultural symposium was organised by the Nhimbe in partnership with Arterial Network Zimbabwe, Pamberi Trust and with funding from MIMETA; as part of NPAAC - aimed at exploring and enhancing the role of festivals as effective advocacy platforms and tools for policy reforms or implementation. It was held on the sidelines of HIFA as part of the festival because festivals play a powerful role in turning a multicultural society into an intercultural society, which is a strategic step in the process of integration. The symposium organisers thought it important to bring policy discourse into an event such as HIFA so as to raise awareness on pertinent and current policy issues and initiate dialogue between festival patrons and policy makers.
