ZLHR Annual Report 2015 7.2.2 Other HRD Workshops ZLHR implemented two refresher trainings for ZLHR lawyers, on election observation and dispute resolution. These were held on 5, 6 June 2015 in Bulawayo and Harare. During the two trainings attended by 36 lawyers ZLHR sought to capacitate its member lawyers with skills to observe the by-elections. This would enable ZLHR to make a valid assessment of the freeness of the elections, as well as identify potential areas of law and administrative reforms. The facilitators were drawn from ZLHR and ZESN. While this training provided knowledge on election observation issues to lawyers it also presented a platform for lawyers to share experiences on dealing with election related litigation including filing and examination of petitions. As a result of this training there was increased awareness of the legal framework by lawyers who attended the two sessions. ZLHR lawyers participating in an election litigation training in Harare
