The organisations listed below have booked a corporate tent during the One Day cricket matches between Zimbabwe and Pakistan.

Sanctions and sports/cultural boycotts are non-violent interventions that have helped to oust unjust regimes - South Africa and Rhodesia are good examples. In the face of massive hunger, violence and fear in Zimbabwe we need to actively support an integrated campaign that creates sustained and varied pressure on the Mugabe regime.

The political and the personal are inseparable. Cricket supporters who say that politics and sport don't mix are the very people who make political decisions about personal actions everyday of their lives, like whether they buy The Daily News over The Herald.

Indeed, the Zimbabwe Cricket Union themselves compromised their position by choosing Robert Mugabe as their Patron.

Now is the time to show that collective action does make a difference. It's up to each one of us to consider how far we're actually willing to go to support democractic change in Zimbabwe.

And every inidividual makes a difference - it's up to you to decide whether you want to be a part of the solution.

Pressurise the Zimbabwe Cricket Union to drop Mugabe as their Patron, email them at [email protected] [2] and [email protected] [2]

Suggest to the organisations below that they pressurise the Zimbabwe Cricket Union to drop Mugabe as their Patron, and that they consider making a donation to victims of violence.
