Gender violence training regional reports

In 2000, GL worked with IPS in the production of a training manual for the media on covering gender violence. This was tested in a media-training workshop that ran parallel to a major SADC conference on gender violence in Lesotho in December 2000.

The Lesotho Workshop report is attached below.

Participants produced a daily newsletter in hard copy and online:

The workshop led to the establishment of a SADC Gender and Media (GEM) Network and to the recommendation that such training take place at national level. During the period 2001/2002, the Ford Foundation and the Open Society Initiative of Southern Africa supported such training in thirteen SADC countries.

Workshops on covering gender violence have been conducted in 13 Southern African countries. Reports of these workshops are available in full text:
