As the
political crisis mounts in Zimbabwe, IWPR launches a fortnightly
newsletter with stories and photographs from inside Zimbabwe to
capture the mood of a fast-developing situation and offer unique
perspectives from local voices.
The coming
months look to be a critical, perhaps decisive time for Zimbabwe's
leaders and its people, and it is more important than ever that
honest, impartial reporting is heard above the clamour of political
confrontation.
Working
under extreme conditions and at great risk to themselves, IWPR's
network of contributors in Zimbabwe are recording the views and
aspirations of ordinary Zimbabweans as well as seeking informed
analysis and comment from the experts.
This project
is part of IWPR's Southern Africa Good Governance and Media Development
Programme, which aims to contribute to the growth of good governance,
the rule of law, and the resolution of conflict as part of democratisation
in the region.
