Partnership Building

Multilateral networking among an influential contact base

Successfully accomplished:

• Multilateral policy discussion and implementation among international decision-makers in the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and the southern African region.
  
  
• The arrangement of international travel and multilateral meetings among legislators and their staff, government officials, journalists and other opinion formers from the United States, the United Kingdom and southern Africa.

The Zimbabwe Democracy Trust has been a key ally of the International Crisis Group (ICG) in support of advocacy on Zimbabwe in Europe and North America. Annabel Hughes's access to Parliaments and Congress in Brussels, London and Washington has opened doors to key legislators for ICG's materials and advocacy. Her coordination of efforts to influence policy has been indispensable.
