Any civic endeavour such as this website and the different sessions that are held as part of the Citizen Journalism programme can neither be pursued nor conducted without the assistance and support of friends. The resources that they bring come in many forms – time, intellectual heft, monetary resources, and ideas on how to improve our work.
