Zimbabwe Vigil Diary – 24th November 2007

LONDON - Although winter is upon us there has been no cooling of support for the Vigil's campaign for a free and democratic Zimbabwe. 

We met with Restoration of Human Rights in Zimbabwe (ROHR) to discuss the logistics of our new partnership.  ROHR has set up structures throughout Zimbabwe and hold mass meetings to educate people about standing up for their rights. They are conducting a campaign to ‘name and shame’ violators of human rights.

We also discussed how to maximise our impact at the EU/AU summit in Lisbon on 8/9 December.  We are planning a delegation of 30 people.  If Mugabe goes to the summit we will be there to greet him.  If he doesn’t turn up we will be there to tell the world that Zimbabwe needs help.

We are co-operating with several activist and human rights groups in Lisbon on some imaginative plans for demonstrations at the summit.
