Soul Beat Africa
----------------
Warm greetings!
My name is Deborah Walter and I am the Project Manager at Soul
Beat Africa.
http://www.comminit.com/africa/
Soul Beat Africa is a web-based initiative focusing specifically
on sharing information about using communication for change and
development in Africa. I wanted to take this opportunity to in-
troduce myself, the Soul Beat Project, and request whether you
may have information that you may like to share through our net-
work. On our web site you will find experiences, materials,
strategic thinking and events, covering how various forms of
communication including radio programmes, edutainment, drama,
mass media, and theatre - are being used to bring about change.
We address such issues as HIV/AIDS, economic development,
women's issues, youth, health, and human rights, to name a few.
Our bi-monthly e-newsletter, The Soul Beat, is distributed to
over 6200 subscribers across Africa and the world, so this is a
great opportunity to connect with others involved in work simi-
lar to yours. We have also just launched two new sections -
awards and resource mobilisation. Use them to find out about
fellowship, scholarship, funding and grant opportunities.
You can view our new sections here:

I hope that you will forward information about your own work for
us to include on the Soul Beat site. The following are examples
of information on the site about Human Rights are:
