The Tanzanian Commission for Human Rights and Good Governance (CHRAGG) on the 10th of April 2013 invited Policy Forum members and secretariat staff to a meeting to discuss ways the two organisations can complement each other in their work.

The guest of honour, Hon. Commissioner Bernadeta Gambishi thanked Policy Forum for the collaboration the network had been extending to the commission in the previous years and also appreciated the willingness to collaborate with CHRAGG.

Ms. Regina Mongi from Agricultural Non State Actors Forum (ANSAF), who represented the Policy Forum’s Board Chairperson Mr. Audax Rukonge, said that Policy Forum is ready to work with the commission once the two sides sat together to brainstorm and agree on the areas to work together.

Among the the things that were provisionally agreed upon at the meeting were working together to produce publications and dissemination of the same, sharing of information and collaborating on organising Breakfast Talks.

Policy Forum cherishes collaborations with other organisations as it creates opportunities for its members to learn from others and to expand the reach of knowledge gained within Policy Forum. It is also a means whereby the network can further its strategic objectives and can demonstrate solidarity with like-minded organisations.
