Zambian campaign moves up a notch

The For Whom the Windfalls? report has recently been re-published in Zambia, and the campaign re-launched, with public forums held on :
- Tuesday 23rd October at Edinburgh Hotel, Kitwe,
- Thursday 25th October at Savoy Hotel, Ndola
- Friday 26th October at Protea Hotel, Chingola

The meetings also saw the launch of a new baseline study by CCJDP-Ndola, the Zambian Congress of Trade Unions, Mineworkers Union of Zambia and DeCOP. This research was led by Dr Mitulo Silengo. I hope to post a copy of this research on the site soon. Further plans for regional and international conferences on the Copperbelt and in Lusaka are in the pipeline.
