WITNESS and HIC began meeting to determine how video could be used strategically to advance HIC’s existing advocacy at the local, regional and global levels. To achieve advocacy objectives, WITNESS and HIC would collaborate with selected HIC members on video trainings, filming support and strategic distribution to key decision-makers.
