Acknowledgements
The Zimbabwe Human Rights NGO Forum acknowledges with appreciation the assistance
given by members and associates in conducting community outreach meetings in its Taking
Transitional Justice to the People Outreach Programme. They are: Zimbabwe Human Rights
Association, Bulawayo Agenda, Gwanda Agenda, Lupane Agenda, Bulawayo Progressive
Residents’ Association, Gweru Legal Projects Centre, Bulawayo Legal Projects Centre, Mutare
Legal Projects Centre, Media Monitoring Project Zimbabwe, Crisis in Zimbabwe Coalition, Legal
Resources Foundation, and Educators Association for Human Rights. The Forum would like to
thank its funding partners as well.
Their valuable assistance enabled the Forum to access areas where they operate and smoothened
the Forum’s introduction to the communities, thus assuring acceptability of the Forum’s
facilitators.
Appreciation is likewise extended to the assistance provided by the community leaders and
government officials. However, it is the views and recommendations of the participants at the
meetings that have given value to this report as a contribution to the dialogue on Transitional
Justice in Zimbabwe. To them we express our most sincere appreciation for their willingness to
share their views and aspirations with the Forum to address issues which will be “critical in the
transitional times ahead of us”.
