Roadmap to Equality: DVD on the Southern Africa Protocol on Gender and Development

The Southern Africa Gender Protocol Alliance produced the Roadmap to Equality DVD to provide a visual documentation of the campaign process leading up to the final adoption of the SADC Protocol on Gender and Development in August 2008.

The DVD aims to bring the process to life through pictures, words and music. It presents a case study of citizen engagement in a concerted three year campaign for adoption of a key sub-regional instrument that can be used to draw out lessons for future advocacy work on gender equality and other developmental areas.

It complements the handbook, Roadmap to Equality: Lessons learned in the campaign for a SADC Protocol on Gender and Development and the CD Roadmap to Equality: Voices and Views a 10-part series of radio reports that includes voices and perspectives on gender equality from across Southern Africa.

Among other issues, the video highlights the following:

– A portrayal of the key gender challenges that confront the region

– It tells the history of the Southern Africa Gender Protocol Alliance and how this collaboration has helped to take the campaign forward as well as focus areas of its future work on ratification and implementation of the Gender Protocol

– Gives voice to key government officials, non-government and regional organisations who gave impetus to the campaign.

– Drawing out of lessons learned and challenges faced in taking the campaign forward.
