SAMGI is hosting the next Southern African media monitoring project, from Monday 30 August - Sunday 26 September. We have participants from Lesotho, Madagascar, Mozambique, Seychelles, South Africa, Swaziland, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe.

Women! Turn up the Volume trains communication officers from various NGOs and CBOs in developing and producing low tech media products (newsletters, banners, t-shirts, posters, etc.) to assist in communicating messages specifically during campaigns.

Part of the SAMGI tradition is to have all her staff members gather in one place for a week per month.  During this week we focus on staff development initiatives.  Themes for the upcoming homeweeks are Strategic Planning.  The next home week is 27^th September - 1^st October.

Training sessions to assist NGOs and CBOs in using the media to communicate with their target groups and beneficiaries.  The course focuses on Gender, Media and Democracy and draws from the experiences and needs of the participants attending in addition to the prepared training programme.
