The Great Lakes Parliamentary Forum on Peace- AMANI Forum is on December 28-2 orgnanizing a workshop on strategic planning in Kigali, Rwanda.
According to a press release on Novermber 23, by the Rwandan parliament, during the workshop, the members of Parliament from Rwanda, DRCongo, Uganda, Tanzania, Kenya, Burundi and Zambia are expected to develop a five year Strategic Plan for engagement of Parliamentarians in peace building and conflict mitigation in the Great Lakes region. The development of the strategy is geared towards ensuring that the Forum maintains a distinctive role capable of adding value and complementing the work of other actors currently engaged in peacebuilding and conflict mitigation.
It is also aimed at providing a platform for increased engagement of MPs in the consolidation of peace and stability in the region as well as supporting other processes aimed at achieving this noble goal. To this effect, AMANI Forum has planned to hold its 2nd Strategic Planning Workshop from 28 November to 2 December 2007 at La Palisse Hotel in Kigali, Rwanda.
AMANI Forum has been undertaking a process of Strategic Planning aimed at defining the organisation’s strategy for the period 2008-2012. The first of the series of these processes was the inception workshop held in Naivasha, Kenya in October 2007. This was followed by regional consultations with members and other stake holders at National level. Through this process, National Chapters have been able to participate in identifying emerging opportunities and challenges since the last strategic plan; outlining the conditions for responding to the opportunities and challenges as well as thinking through some of the innovations that AMANI can appropriate in response to the conditions and opportunities
The workshop will be attended by Members of the AMANI Forum Regional Executive Committee, Chairpersons of the seven National regional Chapters.
