As
Chairman of the Zimbabwe Democracy Trust,
I have worked very closely with Annabel Hughes
over the past three and a half years in her
capacity as Executive Director of the Trust.
I have been enormously impressed by the energy
and determination she has brought to this
task. She has been proved extraordinarily
effective in her lobbying of key members and
committees of the U.S. Congress and the British
Parliament ... and there are many senior Congressmen
and Members of Parliament who would be willing
to attest to this. She
has made a major difference in raising the consciousness and
level of concern in both countries about the situation in Zimbabwe
and also has proved extremely effective in disseminating timely
and accurate material about Zimbabwe to key members of the press
and other opinion formers. ... She is a
person of very high integrity for whom personally
I have formed a very high regard. Her advocacy
and lobbying skills have proved to be outstanding.
