At the Heart of Resistance
Made up of footage gathered in Zimbabwe, At The Heart of Resistance captures the spirit of a unique campaigning group – Women of Zimbabwe Arise – whose clarion call is 'The power of love can conquer the love of power'.
Fahamu’s pioneering work on using ICTs for advocacy testifies that the internet enables people – particularly women – to organise and give power to their voices. Advocacy is not just about making demands of the powerful. It is about people determining outcomes. - Atieno Ndomo, independent consultant, Kenya
