42 Radio and TV Appearances On the state-run Power FM and Spot FM radio stations, the privatelyrun Star FM and ZiFM radio station, and on international broadcasters such as Radio France International and Voice of America, ZLHR project managers, project lawyers and project officers entertained requests for interviews, where they amplified the organisation’s objectives, its work as part of enhancing rights literacy to promote a culture of human rights, respect for the rule of law for a just and democratic society in Zimbabwe. Legal Monitor Through the Legal Monitor, human rights supporters and other citizens remained connected with information and each other to swiftly take coordinated action where needed most. The organisation’s flagship newsletter whose demand continued swelling in 2015 as it reached remote and marginalised communities such as Mberengwa and Binga ensured that people can access current and reliable human rights information to inspire, educate, advocate and create and enhance dialogue among Zimbabweans who can’t afford the luxury of purchasing the expensive media products offered by established media houses.
