Many illustrious sons and daughters - as represented by those lying at Heroes Acre and the Monument of the Unknown Soldier fell in battle in order to bring about the freedom that we are celebrating today for the tenth time. The road to the independence of 1980 was not an easy one and by the same token we could not have expected the road to TEN years to have been a bed of roses. Whilst successes were scored in the achievement of unity and peace, and in the areas of agriculture, education, health services and general development aimed at raising the standard of living, we still have our fair share of major tasks to be accomplished. The redistribution of land, resettlement, creation of jobs, and provision of adequate transport services and decent accommodation for urban and rural areas. To realise these outlined tasks, it is necessary that central government takes full account of the problems as they exist in the various districts and provinces and that there must be close monitoring of the successful implementation of approved projects. It is therefore incumbent upon each and every Zimbabwean to rededicate themselves to the achievement of the aims and ob- jectives of our revolution, so that we do not find ourselves having betrayed those who paid the supreme sacrifice for the liberation of our fatherland. We call upon people in the public and private sectors, members of parliament, and ministers to rededicate themselves to the achievement of our set goals so as to meet the aspirations of our nation. The era we have entered calls upon all of us to be truthful, avoid deception and to shun corrupt practices and ensure that the leadership is well informed about what is going on around us - no matter how painful it may sound. The Party rank and file should be well informed of developmental programmes .at national, provincial and district level so that the Party machinery may be well oiled to harness the human and other resources. In the process, it is necessary that we rid ourselves of agents of disunity, bent on retarding development. Where problems - particularly shortages - are anticipated, people should be informed well in advance so that the nation can brace itself for the h~rdship. Stern measures should be taken against hoarding and any one who speculates in order to exploit such situations. LI ZIMBABWE NEWS APRIL, 1990 Calling the Youth Dear Editor Now that ZANU PF has won the elections, people are looking forward to the realisation of whatever was promised during the election campaign. Some people may argue that these promises were made just for the sake of winning votes. This is totally untrue. Nearly everything can be implemented if we all rally behind the ruling party. The popular masses have a lot to do and should be the foundation for democracy in Zimbabwe. The role of the youth in the masses is and should be that of laying a firm foundation upon which to build a democratic Zimbabwe. We must, above all, consider how to approach and work with the masses because they are the backbone of the programmes and their ultimate success. Therefore, the youth should not be selfish and influenced by personal ambitions and forces of division. We must mobilise the masses and ensure that we always march forward, together guided by the party. We must also win back those who now hold no membership in the party. We still have to teach and show them the light. Everyone is still free to join or rejoin our ranks. The lost sheep should be given all the assistance the party can offer. That can be done through the youth. We must not force them otherwise they just give lip service to the people's party and our great leader Corprade Robert Gabriel Mugabe. We should show them that they have a role to play in the development of the country. The youth should counter all negative propaganda armed at destroying our Party and Unity. It is only thorugh unity that we can succeed. Nothing would be more gratifying tharn achieving our objectives in a non-violent, reconciliatory way. Let us remember that violence begets violence. Difficulties lie ahead but we are destined to overcome them. I sincerely hope that all the people who love freedom, peace and justice will rally behind the party for unity, peace and development. Long live democracy! Long live ZANU PF! Yours Comrade Livingstone "Chavhunduka"Nyuke Chtungwiza ZIMBABWE NEWS APRIL, 1990 The Youth are Straying into the Wildernes Dear Editor Juvenile deliquericy is approaching alarming heights. Youth is indulging into illicit love affairs. Cases of death due to abortions, baby dumping are recurrent in our media like weather reports. Arrogance and disrespect amongst-the youth is frightening. Frustration due to unfulfilled aspirations has led the youth into escaping into imaginary heights of fantasy

  • Gender Equality in Media Content and Operations Articulating
    Studies in Higher Education 41:5, 927-931 DOI: 10.1080/03075079.2016.1147726 Gender equality in media content and operations: articulating academic studies and policy – a presentation Mirta Edith Lourenço Chief, Media Development and Society, Communication and Information Sector, UNESCO, Paris In this article, Mirta Lourenço explains the prospects when higher education studies interface with UNESCO for policy change. The baseline is that education institutions’ articulation with media organizations, media professionals, policymakers, and civil society groups is essential to achieve gender equality in and through media. Keywords: research – gender equality; media; gender-sensitive; indicators; GAMAG; alliance; training institutions Introduction ‘Grace and Frankie’, created by M. Kauffman and H. Morris, and ‘Borgen’, created by A. Price, are TV series that challenge gender stereotypes. Though these two series are by no means representative of the status of women in media, they are emblematic of growing attention to issues of gender. On TV, some realistic representations of women and men are beginning to appear. The percentage of stories highlighting issues of gender equality or inequality has also increased a bit in the news (Global Media Monitoring Project 2015) – in relation to 20 years ago. There has likewise been a very slight improvement in the quantity of women in governance and top management of news media industries (International Women’s Media Foundation 2011), which ‘reflects the limited understanding of pluralism that has prevailed so far’ (UNESCO 1945). Sadly, the advancement may be far too slight to spin off a change of gender values, attitudes and behaviour in society. Any progress made can even be considered relative since it varies according to the region of the world.

  • Zimbabwe at a Glance: 2001-02
    COUNTRY REPORT Zimbabwe At a glance: 2001-02 OVERVIEW Zimbabwe will continue to suffer the most serious political and economic crisis in its 20-year history, and it now appears increasingly unlikely that the president, Robert Mugabe, will finish his current term which runs until April 2002. The EIU currently expects the MDC to call an extended national strike early in 2001, which will worsen an already poor economic situation and is likely to turn into such widespread protest that the president will be forced to resign. But there is a very real possibility that the protests could run out of control and turn extremely violent. Meanwhile the economy will remain in a steep downward spiral, with negative real GDP growth of 6.1% in 2000 and 3.3% in 2002, a huge fiscal deficit, rapidly rising inflation and a falling exchange rate. Moreover, the economy could be damaged in the long term as a result of the current “fast-track” land resettlement policy. The downward spiral is only likely to be broken after Mr Mugabe has left office, real reforms are introduced and external assistance is resumed. Modest real GDP growth of 1.8% is forecast for 2001. Key changes from last month Political outlook • The political situation continues to deteriorate as the government increasingly ignores court rulings. Economic policy outlook • The minister of finance presented the 2001 budget in parliament. It fails to address the real root of the huge fiscal deficit and highlights his political weakness. Economic forecast • The budget deficit for 2000 is now forecast at 28.4% of GDP.
