The Support. Don’t Punish campaign’s Initiatives Programme awards strategic, creative and collaborative projects to carry out ambitious campaigning and advocacy work-plans.
VOCAL Kenya’s initiative focused on legal and judicial activism in relation to ongoing processes of legal reform in the country. Working together, VOCAL Kenya and Seed of Hope mobilised through dissemination, peer-engagement, and advocacy activities to protect and expand the harm reduction response in the country.
Highlighting a key achievement of the initiative, Harrison Mwandacha (Seed of Hope) noted how important it was that 'we have been allowed to be part of the initiative for a bill that supports harm reduction', and pointed to next steps for their mobilisation in relation to 'campaigning for human rights, the passing of the harm reduction bill, advocacy for access to justice, and more access to quality healthcare services'.
The second edition of the Initiatives Programme took place between June 2022 – February 2023 and enabled a broad range of activities ranging from capacity development, to awareness-raising, to political engagement by six community and advocacy groups in eight countries: Colombia, Ghana-Nigeria-Liberia, Indonesia, Kenya, Lebanon, and Uganda.

Support. Don’t Punish is a global, decentralised and grassroots-centred campaign that mobilises communities targeted by and resisting repressive drug policies, and their allies. Under a common banner, we promote harm reduction and drug policies that prioritise health, human rights and well-being.
VOCAL-Kenya is a health and human rights NGO committed to transforming the current prohibition on drugs and punitive drug control laws by moving towards drug policies based on balanced, evidence-based approaches.
This video was commissioned by the Support. Don't Punish campaign to the Rights Reporter Foundation (RRF), a non-profit organisation founded by Hungarian activists to advocate for the human rights of vulnerable populations. Our vision is of a society where policies affecting vulnerable communities are evidence-informed and respect human rights, as well as developed and implemented with the meaningful involvement of these communities. We are incredibly grateful to RRF's István Gábor Takács for his contribution to the production of these videos.
The Initiatives Programme is possible thanks to the invaluable support of the Elton John AIDS Foundation, which enables our global campaign to promote harm reduction and resource grassroots mobilisation.

The musical relationship between Ghana and South Africa dates back to the 70s when Hugh Masekela and Hedzoleh Soundz collaborated. Since then, Ghanaian artists like Becca, Stonebwoy have continued with that relationship. But, M.anifest has become the one artist from Ghana furthering this collaboration through features, music video shoots, and more.
Let's dissect this musical relationship together.

"To Be Or Not To Be An Activist CEO: Towards A CEO Activism Playbook", a webinar presented by Eric Kwame Adae, Ph.D., APR to the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) Educators Academy on May 30, 2023.
Detailed Description:
Although corporations have not always been concerned about wider social, political, and environmental issues that are not directly related to their financial bottom line, some scholars have observed that significant shifts are in the offing. Corporations, their brands, and corporate leaders are taking public stances on diverse social matters through various activist and advocacy campaigns.
Nowadays, big business and big-name CEOs carry protest signs, admonish politicians, and sometimes threaten economic reprisals against politicians and federal governments. Particularly, Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) now weigh in on issues that were once the preserve of politicians, non-governmental organizations, civil society organizations, and other advocacy groups, including controversial issues such as same-sex marriage, race relations, environmental protection, and executive pay.
CEO activism may well signal a significant shift in corporate public relations, brand communications, and PR for social responsibility, since until relatively recently, most large companies have sought to remain apolitical. With the growing incidence of CEO activism, however, some PR firms have been setting up whole new service lines to guide corporations and their leaders in such campaigns. However, CEO activism is regarded as a “fairly new” expression of corporate social advocacy that is not adequately understood. Others see this form of corporate sociopolitical involvement as a “double-edged sword” because of its association with some rewards, but also significant risks.
Based on findings in sections of the literature, but also the presenter’s own empirical research, this webinar will discuss various themes related to CEO activism, including its motivations, clusters, and specific examples of issues, range of tactics, and outcomes produced.
The CEO of the NEIP, John Kumah talks about how he got into politics and his days as a student politician.
